Again, who cares? A sale for Valve is money into Linux gaming support. Still not a bad thing. I don’t care what corporations use in their daily work. It is me who wants to use Linux for gaming.

But I doubt it will happen, if a ton of companies want to buy hundreds of computers at a time, they won’t buy from Valve. They have their own vendors who sell in bulk at lower prizes. Corporations today acquire mostly laptops for day to day office work and mini PCs for service stations. High power workstations usually exceed the steam machine by a whole order of magnitude in required specs, and it is way too powerful just to shift spreadsheets around. The mid range independent creator space and mid range studios might see some use for it if it’s cheap. But I don’t see them causing scarcity of the machine itself. There are other just as cheap options purpose made for office work.
