Doesn't really mean a lot. Simply because Valve is not as big as Sony or Microsoft, so they are most likely going to be selling this at a profit, while Sony and MS won't feel to bad about losing a little bit if they think they can make it back. So like what the article says while this may be more powerful, it'll probably cost more. In which case you are probably better off with PC, unless Steambox does something else?

....ehhh

While Valve isn't as big, they're sitting on a lot more profit than Sony is.  They could afford a loss leading console a lot easier.

But they said that they won't manufacture hardware unless they absolutely have too. Any SteamBox will be coming from a 3rd party manufacturer most likely several.
