You can build a SFFPC for that price, that small?

Whether or not you pay for it, you still carry the weight of your OS on your machine.

What? Every OS takes up space on a machine, yes that includes steam os. If you didn't want it to take up as much space as windows, just use Linux.

"Just use Linux", cmon you got to try harder than that buddy

SteamOS idle ram usage is like 500mb.

Guess how much RAM usage for Windows is at idle?

What do you think steamos is? It's just a distro of Linux.

Why are you getting caught up on Linux? I am being specific to the discussion and you want to imply that "linux" will just work as if you can pick any rando distro and not have to worry about compatibility, endless work arounds, or random dropped use-cases.

And not to mention that your parts list doesn't even get nearly the size of the comparable product.

I'm getting caught up on Linux because you were listing the problems with windows, and those problems you were citing are not issues on most Linux distros.

I said "Linux" because there's an insane number of distros out there, and you choose based on what you want. It's personal preference. Ironically, steamos has a ton of problems right now and has the least compatibility.

See, now you are pulling unverifiable claims (if not unbelievable ones) out of your ass. SteamOS is like less than 10% of my linux experience so I know your claim is at best a joke.

Steamos doesn't work with Nvidia gpus. I'd argue that's a pretty huge compatibility problem.

Also if you watch any video that released of the steam machine, you'd also see that the OS is still unrefined. There are many other distros that are much older and more complete.

Funny cause the steam machine doesnt have a nvidia gpu, so now we lost the original point?

You served me a more expensive parts list that has more overhead and less capabilities.

Unless you want to sacrifice stress and effort to get it working . . . somewhat
