I know that Steam Deck is talked about a lot here, but the overall numbers really aren't that high. And who knows if Steam took that number out for the steam machine analysis.

I think the small modular reactor concept is overdone. Small doesn't mean cheap, and cheap is what we want.
I've said this for years, the right lives in a world of strawmen.
Who's doing the real reflecting?
That doesn't make any sense at all. People can buy whenever they want. And whether it's a PC or a steam machine this is simply the price. There's discussion everywhere that building yourself would have a whopping $70, and of course prebuilt will be the same.

In the total project timeframe it takes to design and produce a machine, that is now.
... There are plenty in that group that can afford a steam machine. Why is everyone acting like that 70% is living on gruel.
Seriously what are you on about? It doesn't have to be every single one of that 70% that's chomping at the bit to upgrade. That is the easy customer pool. PCs users are on a continuous upgrade cycle, it's not like consoles where they have to upgrade every generation. It's more of a cycle. Can't afford? You seem to want to focus on the cheapest users and act as if that's all 70%, which sorry to say is just wrong and bad thinking. Sure there's a long tail in that bell curve and some at the very end are on strict budgets, but there are tons that are just on the normal upgrade path. Plus others whose PC's break. The 30% above steam specs can wait it out, but 70% may still want/need to upgrade. No one is ignoring price, this is simply the price of PC gaming now. And what are you quoting? You're just making things up now, so that's my sign I really need to peace out. Ciao.
................................. Allow me to amend my statement to what was obvious. Small and reproducable doesn’t mean cheap electricity, and cheap electricity is what we want.
