      I’d be down with Valve making a proprietary distribution of SteamOS that’s easily installable, and works with other CPUs.

        Valve is planning on Making SteamOS available to install for regular Desktops at some point, though it has taken them awhile. In the meantime, Linux Mint is pretty terrific.

        I don’t think they actively try to release a bad product, but anything good is an anomaly of using minimal effort
