“Why does this matter?” you ask; the same reason that the Razer Edge matters, high end gaming not done in your home office. Seriously though, nobody wants to be tied to their office chair (no matter how much you paid for it) when they have a giant sofa to sit on. Plus this allows you to have Gaming Rig power at an HTPC size, keeping your wife/GF/sig-other at least a little happy. Now that the system is finally out of closed Beta you too can learn how to do this surprisingly simple install on your HTPC or laptop and let the good times roll. Just head over to the Steam Site and get to gaming!
I might have to install Linux on my old school labtop and try this out
Agreed, I have a few less than perfect comps lying around I may be willing to sacrifice in the name of science!
