Not this go-around, but I think it’s a Big Deal. Xbox and PS4 are already converging toward being more PC-like, including the underlying hardware. I can certainly imagine buying a Steam box, like, today if it was within a reasonable price range.

Maybe by the next round of console wars something like this will be a contender?
