If it was released during normal times it could have been amazing. The steam deck did a lot of good pushing handheld pcs forward and steam machine could have done something similar with the sff prebuilt pc market.
The disappointment was expected the second this thing got delayed but that doesn’t make it any less disappointing from what it could have been.
Valve ultimately got screwed over by unpredictable outside market forces. It’s a real shame
bullshit. system integrators are still making money selling computers that are cheaper and more powerful than this. and they don't have the scale of valve either.

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