  Just remember its not out of altruism. It's very beneficial to Valve to be able to eliminate their Windows dependency. I will say, it is good when incentives align for the benefit of the consumer.

    That’s the point of markets. Three ways to get someone to do something: * make them love you * pay them * make them fear you Markets incentivize behavior that would otherwise require altruism or fear.

    I don't think many people expect companies to do things out of altruism, but, as you say, we are happy when our interests and theirs align.

    > Just remember its not out of altruism. I’ve always been curious what point is being made when people say this. Care to expand on it?

      At least in my case, the point being made when I say "Just remember it's not out of altruism" is to remember that it's not out of altruism.

        Why is it important to be reminded of that?
