2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

The sad part is that Valve really did price all the parts for pretty much as low as they could go:
The hardware prices seem competitive. But the important note is hinting at the real form factor tax: It doesn't have the same cost / performance ratio as a normally sized PC using the same hardware.
Sadly thats probably a competitive price for a console now.
That's unfortunate. Expected, but unfortunate.
I like gaming. That like is not strong enough to extend to that price point.
This makes me wonder about the next time we have to buy new phones ....
Just buy a cheap Chinese phone.
Probably not interested for those specs at that price.
In Japan, the page also has a link that goes to some partner of theirs that's just a maintenance page at 09:38 on a weekday which.... does not inspire confidence.
To be fair that’s normal in Japan.
And if you’re talking about Komodo Station, they’re pretty good
I work in IT in Japan and we'd be in deep shit if that happened at any company I work for.
I don't think I've ever used Komodo station for anything before which is why I clicked to see.
It's a hipster PC. Even if there wasn't the current hardware pricing bubble, you'd still pay the form factor tax.
Not suprised after seeing the deck's price hike. Thanks AI...
Wow I’ll never be able to own one 😂.
In this economy?
So thats pretty much as expected - 7 months ago it would have been ~$700 as predicted
Am I the only one that has a computer hooked up to their tv?
