It is a bigger, don’t have the Steam Controller dongle integrated, and you need to manually install SteamOS on it.

But you get a machine that can be upgraded way more easily than the Steam Machine, and a better GPU from the start.

    If you are tech savvy, don’t waste their money like that. Help them learn how to build their own, or point them to prebuilts with much better cost: performance ratios.

      Believe me, I’ve tried. They do not care. People who have only used consoles their whole lives will not deal. I’ve tried with different people forever. Even the people I’ve convinced to want one still won’t get one. They’d probably get this. Maybe not for a grand, though.
