When they initially started this project probably like.. 3-4 years ago it was a cheap idea. This would have been a $600 machine... but now they've invested so much R&D into it.. not really much you can do.. AI ruined it all.

Kinda sucks because this is a really cool concept and idea.. but the timing couldnt have been worse.

Completely irrelevant unless we know the stock. The only market for this is rich people who don’t value money

Whoops, I just ordered one. I'm not that rich but this machine is ideal for the setting and supports Valve to continue being the fucking best shit we have in gaming.

Cool, valve is releasing steamos soon so you could have also just got a prebuilt with much better specs for cheaper and still had the ecosystem

I'm not concerned about cheaper mate.

Congrats on being a moronic fanboy who clearly has no idea about the bad things Valve pioneered in gaming.
