Comment on Looks like Valve is working on a SteamOS device codenamed fremont. Maybe a standalone Steam Box
woelkchen@lemmy.world 1 week agoIt could be reference hardware for 3rd parties looking to make SteamOS devices. We at know that’s happening.

Yeah, that was my thinking too. Lilac is a generic enough platform that OEMs can do the bulk of their platform work with a lilac dev kit before they have real hardware in hand for the last 10%.
Valve hasn’t even announced their own steam machine yet have they? I’d be betting on ASUS to be first to market with whatever’s in the pipe from OEMs.

Valve didn’t announce anything. They technically didn’t even announce Deadlock. I think whatever will be announced, we’ll see next month at CES any my personal opinion is that a new generation ROG Ally with a SteamOS option is at the forefront (no way Asus isn’t also making a Windows one but perhaps with less fanfare).
