Absolutely no need for SteamOS. It will further break platforms.
Specs : Q6600 G0 Stepping @ 2.4GHz | 4GB | MSI GTX 750Ti | VS550 | LG 17" | Farassoo FMS 2.1 | Nexus 5 32GB Black | Pantech Burst Black running CM10.1 | XBox 360 20 GB

How would it break platforms when it is still Linux? Steam is already available for Linux and a game that would run on SteamOS would run on any version of Linux.

OS: Archlinux + KDE5 Plasma
SoulEngine : Core i5 4690K||Asus Z97-A||Gskill RipjawsX 2x4 GB DDR3-1600||Corsair 300R Windowed||Zotac GTX 1070 Amp Extreme||Seagate Barracuda 320GB + 500GB + 2TB||Seasonic SS-650KM3
So it's just like another Linux distro, but customized by Steam? Whatever it is, i will not change from Windows 7.![]()

Well, its too soon to say what features they would add until I can get my hands on it.

I would rather want it to be a gaming specific os for pc, than an os which lets streaming to tvs. There are a lot of software which take care of the streaming part already.
Would be wonderfull to have an os optimized for gaming only(that too free), so that low/mid-end configs can handle games better.
Its based on Ubuntu from what I heard, and Valve are working on a debugger with another company, and then send it to the game studios so that they could start developing better games for linux too.
Quad Core Q9300, Gigabyte EP45usb3 mobo, Asus GTX760 DC2, 3x2 GB ddr3 memory, Corsair GS600 psu.
And what of Native DirectX11 ?? MS not gonna give it away just like that and its not like most AAA games will support OpenGL over DX11 in the future
About 1 1/2 hours left for the second announcement. I guess this will be the Steambox, which will allow you to stream games from your PC to your living room.
Just guessing.
I am speculating that Valve could make an improvement over some trans-gaming service like Cedega or Wine which could allow Windows games to run over Linux by converting DirectX instructions to OpenGL.
But then again, still too soon to say.
