It’s a console for PC gaming. Consoles have always been like that. The original Steam Machines were small modular PCs built by system integrators and they sold barely any of them.

the original steam machines had linux in a protonless time so they didn’t have much appeal in the first place

    Don’t get confused, not all PCs are sold with windows preinstalled or require microsoft software to work.

    What makes you think you wouldn’t be able to load a different Linux distro on this box? Sounds like it’s just a PC with steam OS pre-installed. Or are you just against an OS being pre-installed?
