Steam Machines and controllers are doing well on pre-orders!

Microsoft has demonized Linux for years doing its best to frighten users away from the free operating
system and to continue to pay for their Windows operating system and its associated software. With Windows 8 Microsoft became extremely belligerent and overbearing towards video game publishers and distributors demanding to approve anything that ran on Windows 8…so Valve threatened to start producing for Linux and Microsoft dared them to try. Many Microsoft-controlled media outlets denigrated Valves choice and ran stories (likely paid-ads) against Linux and Linux gaming and tried to laugh Valve. Well today with Steam machines selling briskly months before the launch of the Steam OS (a Debian Linux fork) the idea of Linux gaming isn’t funny anymore. In fact lately Microsoft has been doing everything to hype Windows 10 to try and upstage the Steam Machines. Well, good luck with that Microsoft. Linux is coming to desktop PCs in a big way soon and you’re just going to have to take it!
