Broadly speaking, what are Xbox looking to do here?

They optimise Windows for gaming and open up the console for other storefronts, then is it just a Steam device? They won't make money from Steam sales.

Is this a cloud streaming device? Can you cloud stream games from other storefronts? It's all incredibly vague to me.

Perhaps they're hoping to stop people from going to linux for gaming. PC gaming has certainly not hurt their stranglehold on the top OS spot.
