I still don't understand the steam thing? is it basically a gimped PC?

If I already have a PC why would I buy it?

You wouldn't, unless you want to play PC games in the living room I guess without having to figure out how yourself.


I think people know how to do that now. Dont they?

50m active steam gamers?   I dont buy that to be honest.

Nice to see Windows 8 now about to pass 5%, will be 10% by Summer easily.  Dont think Gabe expected that.


50m is probably correct.  Think about it, you just have to signup.  their was 80m PSN accounts a few years ago.  That doesn mean they are using it though, that is just something so a company can brag about numbers even if its not entirely true.  

Steam however does have 6m concurrent users at the moment though.  I think that is how they stated it.


Thats why I put active there.  I have a steam account.  It used to sign me in automatically.... I never use it.

I see, I didn't see the active part.  Gabe is cool in terms of giving away cool deals but he is very verbal at times as well.  Regarding the whole Windows 8 deal.  I don't remember why he complained about Windows 8.  He said it was closed off or something if I remember right.
