      The conversation so far has been (paraphrasing) …

      1. Lemmchen: “Wow steam machines are gonna be expensive”, on a thread specifically about a massive price hike on Steam Decks (due to memory pricing)
      2. You: “Well maybe not, machines won’t have OLED screens, battery, and optional controller”
      3. Femtek: “yeah but those things aren’t why steam Decks are having this huge price hike. They are going up because of memory” memory is a shared component between Decks and machines.
      4. You: “yes, those things will impact the price, but these other things that the machine won’t have will also impact the price.”
      5. Femtek: “not by the same amount”
      6. You: “I wasn’t arguing that”

      What point were you trying to make if not that having no screen/optional controller would offset the increased memory prices?

        I think you guys don’t read the context of the message. I was responding to:

        Well, here goes the hope for a sub-1000€ Steam machine.

        In which I tried to explain there is hope for a machine under 1000 Euros, because the machine just don’t add up in price, but there are parts that make it cheaper to produce. So your paraphrasing therefore incomplete and misleading.
