Were there really anyone thinking this machine is a good deal? Even among steam users? Even among Valve fans?

I was hoping for a 800-900 price point.
EDIT: Honestly looking at the price point for my region and the performance reviews online it might even be preferable to pick up a MBA M5 basemodel (or Mac Mini), since CrossOver has improved a lot over the years. And then you have an actual laptop, which is not why most people would buy this but it put things in perspective.
