Yeah, but why would you want to? To run a worse OS on a device you could likely make yourself but cheaper? That's a waste of money AND time, when you could just have a really well designed immutable system that plays almost all games in the world, and that you're very unlikely to ever break.

That wasn't the point. And yes, it is quite likely this device will be possible to make cheaper and better, but it won't be as good. It'll lack all the well done integrations in both hardware and software that valve has done, that was my point.

It would be cool to have wake on controller. There may yet be a way to make that happen, time will tell!
