It's an 20/80 rule

80% has med-end to low-end Desktops/ Laptops

Most popular games are not very power consuming:

Seeing Football Manager 2013 on top would be interesting for Fifa players on consoles to have best of both worlds since Steambox will come with a dedicated controller.

To me the biggest benefit is not having to buy an expensive desktop instead I'll get a cheap laptop/tablet and a steambox.
