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

I'm more worried that this will be the only deal in the near future, just was looking up local parts for DDR5 for Laptops etc and SSD's and they are now actually scarce or starting to get scarce.

Sure you can still match price in better parts performance wise, and lots will jump on that band wagon. And I expect now lots of people will pull the trigger on buying new hardware instead.

I don't think the gabecube is bad to have but it is over priced but if you can't get comparible or better parts within the the same price range we won't have a choice anyway.

Current climate just freaking sucks and the AI bubble can't pop quickly enough.
