Well, with MSoft and Qualcomm trying to counter Apple's laptops with their ARM chips and OS, plus Google (somewhat) merging Android and Chrome OS, this is something Valve needs to keep in mind. Plus more options to gamers to game with or without Windows.

Yeah, quite exciting times. I'm on the cusp of ordering AYN Thor since I've seen how Gamehub on Android works and connects with Steam, so you can play on the go on something that's actual handheld, instead of these oversized portables in PC handheld market. Sure, I don't like gaming on handhelds, but it's necessity, since I'll be crunching for many more months, and sure, I'll be limited to less demanding or older games, but I'll take anything at this point.

Speaking of games, another Next Fest - I might be able to sneak in few hours on Sunday, and apart from Ash and Steel demo that I want to try, do you have anything to recommend?

I have to admit that I haven't payed a lot of attention to this Next Fest, giving it only a quick look during the first day. That's why the articles about some of the demos that PCgamer has been posting can be useful to some.

So far, the only game that have picked up my interest has been one called Retro Racing 2 (link), but it's mostly because the graphics reminded me of the Micromachine games from the 16-bit consoles and because the cars don't sem to run over ice like some arcade games like to do. I haven't tried it yet, tho, so I don't know if it's any good.
