I'm not buying a Steam Machine, here's what I'm doing instead

I’m a big Valve fan and avid follower of Gabe “He shall lead us into the 4th Dimension” Newell. I appreciate what he strives to achieve with the market dominance that Valve has within the PC gaming space. Sure, not everyone feels comfortable with Valve’s firm grip through Steam, but I have had nothing but the best experience with the platform. It wasn’t always this pleasant to work with, and I was there through the earlier days where stability was the leading issue, but it’s largely flawless in 2025.
