Is the Steam Machine a good option for Nintendo console gamers?

No need to buy anything, just use a regular Windows PC like the one you probably used to post this. It has waaaaaaay more games available for it than the Steam Machines.

I own a macbook. Don't like Windows.

So the consensus is not to bother with the Steam Machines, even though I will not build a P.C.? I'm not buying a custom P.C. either, because there is still a lot tinkering I'd have to do. I only play games casually. I just want to buy a game and play it. I don't want to mess with settings or anything. I was hoping that the Steambox would be a good alternative since it's OS is so close to consoles and since Sony now glued online to the PS4's PS+.

I'll probably just stick to my Wii U, then.

There's still more games on Steam for Mac than for Linux (which SteamOS is based on) so even that is better than buying a Steam Machine.

My macbook probably couldn't run most/any next gen AAA games, and again, I don't want to tinker with settings or controllers or anything.
