It is a bigger, don’t have the Steam Controller dongle integrated, and you need to manually install SteamOS on it.
But you get a machine that can be upgraded way more easily than the Steam Machine, and a better GPU from the start.
You are buying hardware, you ask support from the manufacturers. The store is simply selling hardware.
So if I buy Valve, I’ll gain the benefit of support and the hardware. Nice!
Makes more sense, since part of the hardware is soldered, and they work closely with the parts manufacturers to ensure linux compatibility.
