I'm on the reservation list for a Steam Machine and personally have no regrets, but I'm so happy these exist. I don't think it has to be a big competition, but between not appealing to a mass audience and have limited stock, the Steam Machine may have inadvertently ushered in a prebuilt Linux PC revolution, and that's a wonderful thing.

Can we finally say it? Is the year of the Linux desktop finally upon us??
