Right, but the figure is currently in the hundreds, I don't have a huge amount of faith in every game I want running through this.

Sure the PC is designed for gaming, but why not pay a bit extra and get one that can do everything. I would much rather the more open solution of Windows (assuming they don't remove the desktop in Windows 9) where I can fiddle with what I want, rather than rely on things designed for Steam OS

You can fiddle with what you want. It's Linux. You can upgrade the machine, change the software/OS or whatever. It is a PC, but with the hardware and operating system specifically geared towards gaming. If games show a performance increase over Windows on Steam OS, gamers will get it en masse.

I want freedom, but not Linux freedom. i very much like the way Windows works and I have literally no complaints. I don't even hate the evil Windows 8, it works great playing Netflix on one of my screens while playing Rome II on the other.
