While I think something like this makes sense, the pricing seems off. For $600 you can build a PC with a desktop GPU. If you want to make it easy to set up, you could just use an off the shelf mini-PC and preinstall everything so a non-technical user can get started without any hassle. I really hope we’ll see more Steam machine like devices in the future.
Tbh I’m kind of worried seeing a software group get into hardware. There are a lot of hidden costs and production issues which provide difficult challenges. I hope they succeed, but I worry this will just flop and cost them a lot of money.
