steam OS looks promising as to get the gaming people to see that games run superior under open source Linux, specially when you need speed and accuracy in operating system functions , my hope that Linus and the linux foundation support valve breakthrough.

- lake99 10y agoSteamOS is holding back the Linux community. SteamOS is still based on Debian 8 (Jessie). Steam software often clashes with existing libraries of a current system. When I benchmarked Steam games, they delivered only 65% of the Windows performance figures when run on Linux. I am thankful that SteamOS is nothing more than a lab experiment. If that became popular, Valve will not pay any attention to us, regular Linux users.
