30 seconds reading that quote, or 30 minutes watching a video? Efficiency man, don't ignore it!

Wouldn't surprise me one bit of all of those people ended up "disappearing".
Was some project cancelled?
The engineers could not make the Toaster-on-Steambox (ToS (tm)) design work properly, which subsequently infuriated Gabe.

The specialized clean up crews are removing the bullet ridden bodies from Valve HQ as we speak. They have all been stripped of their jobs, lives and hats.

The First ‘Steam Box’ Will Launch This Holiday Season Starting At $1,000
Xi3's Piston—the first unofficial Steam Box console—will launch this holiday at a starting price of $1,000, the hardware manufacturer announced today.
If you preorder it before March 18, you'll get a $100 discount.
The Piston is the first PC designed specifically to play games in your living room using Steam's Big Picture mode. Valve is helping finance the machine, although the Steam makers are developing their own Steam Box that will also be released this year, according to Valve boss Gabe Newell.
"Clearly, the computer/video gaming market is huge, both in the personal computer and traditional console markets," Xi3 CEO Jason Sullivan said in a press release. "That being said, we believe there is a crying need for a machine that captures the best of both worlds, with the upgradeability of computer gaming rigs and the design and form factor of consoles. We believe our Piston Consoles do exactly that-deliver the beauty and small size of consoles with the upgradeability of computers."

Well... yes.
What I mean is it will be a couple of years of this being viable before most developers/publishers start supporting Linux. Although fortunately most of the Kickstarter/indie projects do so already and, quite frankly, those are the only games I'm looking forward to in 2013-2015ish.

Kotaku is bending reality again...
At the official website you can biuld your own custom unit, starting at 499.00 dollars, NOT 1k. And that shit has close to nothing to do with the SteamBox, it is not focused on being a console and playing on tv, but rather a portable work pc, HENCE no GFX card... And fuck Kotaku.
1000 Kwans for a Piss-on cube?
Good luck with that insolvency proceeding.
