Pretty exciting times ahead as Valve might finally release SteamOS to more hardware. This amount of Linux desktop coverage would be unimaginable few years ago.

It will be great to see more PC hardware reviews with Linux in mind.

Does SteamOS offer something significant over other GNU+Linux distributions? Waiting for it to release as a catalyst to start including Linux seems a bit odd. I hope it won't be like waiting for Half Life 3.

Level1techs already does on a separate channel, they're friends with Gamer's Nexus, and met up in person recently. I'd bet that's the inspiration haha.
