Before you start making plans to evict your current rig, I want to explain how the Steam Hardware Survey actually works. Rather than representing every player that uses the storefront, the monthly census instead uses a small percentage of participants who've opted in as a sample. It's anything but representative of all 154 million active users, meaning the statistic above isn't an absolute.

Does the author know how *survey sample sizes work?

Do I?

Is it because it's opt in or opt out?

Its probably not designed for me in mind but I love my steam deck and depending on price I will probably buy a steam machine.

Edit: my personal reason is I want something to hook to my TV other than my deck I can play with my family on.

    I use Bazzite on my TV, fork of SteamOS, and it's been a gamechanger. It's so easy to just have all of my games on the TV, so I think the machine will be a great investment.

    Please tell me why you think Bazzite is a fork of SteamOS. They have completely different foundations: SteamOS is based on Arch while Bazzite is a variant of Fedora Atomic Desktop.

    Am I missing something?
