I cancelled too! I really wanna see what excuse Microsoft will pull out to walk back the changes.

Hit 'em where it hurts, people.

    I wish, Steam would make another steam machine with steamOS

    The last thing I want is a gaming PC

    The steam machine program was where OEMs could partner with Valve to make a gaming PC that shipped with a steam controller and Steam OS. That’s it.

    You stated you wanted a steam machine, but also say you don’t want a gaming PC, but… That’s what a steam machine is

      Thanks for clarifying! You are right, I thought they sold complete systems with just Steam OS, like the Steam Deck, but as a console. Seems like I was wrong around it.

      Just to make sure: I’m aware one can also use the desktop mode on SteamOS, but it’s not really necessary.

      Yeah I think some folks get confused and think Steam machines were a Steam based console, but the closest to that is the Steam Deck which admittedly is pretty solid. Though I do think Valve has experimented with making a Steam Console in the past but I don’t think it went anywhere, though it also couldve been absorbed into the Steam Deck team.
