What would a Framework partnership accomplish? Ship SteamOS as a preinstalled option for their laptops?
- robotnikman 11mo agoThat actually would be a cool idea and doable.
- nicce 11mo agoFramework could already do that if they want.
- justinsaccount 11mo agoYou seem to be forgetting the framework desktop which is very similar in form factor to the new steam machine: https://frame.work/desktop https://frame.work/desktop
- rafterydj 11mo agoI 100% see the Framework Desktop and Steam Machine less as competitors and more as separate flavors of the same form factor: Steam Machine for the lower priced, casual plug-n-play gaming use case, and Framework Desktop for the higher priced, professional use case. Seeing as the Steam Machine feels like a way to get traction for SteamOS just as much as it is a venture for selling hardware, a partnership between them selling Framework laptops/desktops verified for SteamOS seems like exactly the type of thing Valve would want.
