It doesn't look like SteamOS is going to be an OS like Windows or OSX but more an expansion of Steam Big Picture. I think you still need Steam on a PC to acutally run the games on your TV.

You are:

"It will be available soon as a free stand-alone operating system for living room machines."

"In SteamOS, we have achieved significant performance increases in graphics processing"

Ohh okay that makes more sense. It sounds interesting, I think it's too early to tell if it's going to be a sucess or a flop but it has a lot of potential.

Exactly.  I said probably.  Then again everything Valve touches turns to gold, so if anyone can do this they can...
