  I’m a native English speaker, and still every time I write something I read it back and expand every “it’s” into “it is” or “it has” in my head, just to make sure. And replace every “its” with “his” or “hers”.

  It’s even worse with on screen keyboards, because sometimes even if I typed it right, the autocorrect will “fix it”, so I have to reread.

  But it’s a title…

  I honestly hadn’t even noticed, so I’m surprised it bothered you so much. But I guess I get grumpy about other random bullshit sometimes…

  I think there’s people who have gaming as a hobby, and people who have speccing and building a gaming PC as a hobby.

  And Valve was never going to sell anything to the PC Hobby crowd, because they get their fun from squeezing every dime and finding the absolute best bang for the buck or whatever.

  So I think it’s sensible for Valve to be like “yeah, we’re just going to make a pretty good machine for people who don’t care about how much VRAM it has”.

  And the comments of every review and YouTube video will be full of people complaining about how you can get so much more for so much less, and that it’s dogshit, but that’s because the people on those sites are the hobby people.

  But that won’t necessarily translate into selling like hotcakes. I hope it does, for several reasons, but only time will tell if there’s enough people in the market for that kind of machine that aren’t the hobby people.
