If its backwards compatible... It will use PowerPC... Steam OS and majority of the steam games run on x86... There is no way will this be backwards compatible and be a steam machine... Heck, there is 0 chance of it even being a steam machine even if it wasn't BC and I don't really feel like writing an essay as to why it won't...

But if it is... Then it still won't matter cause most games on Steam are windows only and are not on Linux/SteamOS so this wouldnt help at all and it would probably lead to greater risk of piracy

That's not necessarily true. It would bethe easiest way for sure, butit's possible to make it backwards compatible either with emulation (would likely require a pretty beefy machine), or too create an API designed for the specific purpose.
