Valve aren't putting any exclusives on the Steam Machine because they see "the whole PC catalog as our 'launch exclusive'" (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

Real dumb ones.

I spent more time "tinkering" on windows after some updates to figure out how to set it back to how I want it after some update silently resets things to default or moves some setting for no good reason. And then there's the "hey please use our shit software that you went out of your way to install an alternative to... no? Ok, I'll ask later" full screen ads, ads in the start menu, ignoring default search engine or browser settings when it could. It was a hostile user experience.

Linux has been such a better experience that windows shills like you are a complete joke. Though interesting that you used hedging language here and talk about "people saying they do more tinkering than actual gaming" rather than "people doing more tinkering than actual gaming", almost as if you know you're full of shit but are trying to avoid outright lying for some reason.
