Lopen 08/23/18 11:20:00 PM #29:	Well it could become gaming world relevant if this pans out is why it's interesting A lot of gaming folk are tech savvy enough to get Linux functioning on their PC they just choose not to because Linux doesn't run a bunch of relevant games and it's generally more work to set up even when it does. If Steam makes a bunch more games work and makes the process more streamlined in general that could be a big deal for a lot of people. Not enough that Microsoft is going to go out of business or anything absurd like that, but enough to be a noteworthy convenience for a decent amount of people. Nothing wrong with that.
