    SteamOS

    Since this community is based around CS:S and Steam, I felt this would be the best section to post.

    http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/SteamOS/

    Will anyone use this? Opinions on it? Etc.

    I think this is a great step forward for gaming seeing as Valve is the top distributor in video games for PC. I'd be interested in seeing what other features come with the OS, or if it is just dedicated to Steam. Since it's based on Linux it could be further modified for other peoples' needs.

    This isn't really aimed at the typical PC.
    This is essentially to turn your PC into a console and sit it in your lounge or if you have an older PC you could stream games from your main pc to the older one.

    Yeah, I would definitely use it.
    I have been thinking about building a mATX or even ITX computer to permanently sit at my TV for use with the Big Picture.
    I would probably also install Win7 on a separate partition on the same HDD, as I think this Linux based SteamOS will not have 100% support for all games. However what it will mean is that the OS is dedicated for gaming so there are potential performance increases that may be seen.
    Im quite interested to see what the verdict is as this OS is build purely for games for the ground up.

    Looks cool.
    But it seems to be trying to make PC gaming into Console gaming. I have a Xbox, Desktop & Laptop to game on.
    Yet again it might be good for people who want to sit back on a nice couch & play instead of on a computer chair.
    My computer chair is comfy so no need for that & + i play better.

    So PC gamers laugh & insult console players but now they're becoming console users ?
    PC gaming is the best but i like console too.
    Tbh i probably would have no need for it because on PC i usually only play games that are only on PC or much better on PC & 27" monitor is enough for me when it comes to PC gaming.
    As for console i have a 51".
