I'm actually pretty excited that Valve is (sort of) getting into the market for consoles. I think this is the first step to a full fledged console with PC upgradability and quality. This is essentially that, but is still considered a PC from what I understand. But with the release of Steam Big Picture and the use of an HDMI capable television, this can basically be a console.
Thoughts?

People aren't completely understanding the product. It's not a little box just for steam, its an entire gaming desktop that fits in the palm of your hand. And it is perfect for gamers on the go who don't want to drop 2 grand to get a really good gaming laptop. From a guy who does lan party's all the time, this would have been really helpful to have. Also people see the 1 grand and start running but they don't see the $500 version. And we can't really say much about it until we get the full specs
