    But it's based on Piston design mechanics and architecture. Modular motherboard, etc. That's how I understood it when they first started talking Steambox.

    Xi3 also announced that Valve had invested in them, though did not disclose a specific dollar amount.
    By that definition then an iPhone/iPad is also a Microsoft product.

    The Xi3 Piston console - backed by Valve as a third-party Steam Box
    I understand what you're trying to say but they didn't just invest 5$ in it, the thing runs on Linux + its designed to run steam = Major involvement my Valve.

    Actually I wouldn't mind a Piston. Granted R10k is a lot to fork out, but it's up-gradable, uses on average less than 50W of power and is ridiculously small.

    I believe the Steambox will be cheaper, but I doubt the specs will as impressive as the Xi3...
