    This is damn cool.

    Steam has introduced its own OS. This has the potential to dump all of the overhead of windows, but I could also see it becoming an OS that is crazy exploited.


    I am excited.

    It does seem to have great potential.

    On one hand it's really cool. On the other, I think it's the next to last nail in the coffin of PC gaming. Valve has been one of the last solid bastions of PC gaming. The biggest complaint I've seen about this is most of the games don't work well with non-PC controls. IE, Console Controllers. I hate the idea of using a controller. It's a dumbed down game to me.

    Yeah see, I have no desire to move off a computer, but I love losing the performance overhead of windows. I foresee a dual boot machine with steam OS being the default.
