well, valve is releasing a video game console too. Perhaps by 2013 we will see a 4 way console war.
notice something mentioned, valve wants to create a curated experience. Aka, this is not simply a valve branded PC. I'm betting that it is with a valve proprietary operating system.
now the interesting questions are, what is its specs? Is it going to be Intel based? Or is it power-PC based? What exclusives will it have? Will valve still release titles for other platforms?
