Well they did have to go back and redo the controller. And how long ago was the Steambox announced? Going on two years?
Yeah, and the controller was innovative before the change. After it was just pointless. Use an XBOX controller.
Fact is that the only real tangible anything about SteamOS Steam Machines etc is making OPENGL run as good as DX11 and become a universally welcome standard for PC games.
Not much incentive for PC game publishers to cut their console market by giving Valve their time and effort.
They should have fixed the controller and shipped a StreamCast like device to make any gaming PC stream to any HDTV on your network (without lag). Then they could forego the Linux waste of time and have a marketable product. I would have bought that and thrown my consoles in the garbage. Not really but you know what I mean.
