    Well, guess I’m sticking with an old laptop and console for the foreeable future.

    I wonder how all the people I know are gonna take this, considering they’ve been rubbing “pc specs at console price” for who knows how long…

      Valve has said from the beginning that the Steam Machine would not have a console price. Did they all miss it?

        Your guess is as good as mine. I assumed it would be similarly priced to my pre-built laptop cost, which was around 1300-1400.

        I’m mildly surprised it hasn’t rise more in the last 2-3 months, but I assume that’s part of why v/ram is a little on the low side. From my understanding, most of the games that would be playable on it don’t need tons of ram, since they’re better optimized on Linux.
