Re: Valve's new Steam Machine - PC gaming giant Valve unveils new console and it looks great
In the new year If discretionary funds do allow purchasing one, then this cube thing will serve as an authoring platform mostly, really not interested playing games on it tbh and haven't touched linux since redhat at uni or indeed written OOP scripts (JAVA) as well, It's just I've had a gutful of MS. -
