Gabe Newell: Valve's Steam Machines Outperform Consoles At Same Price Point
 

Gabe talks a little bit about his intentions for bringing PC gaming into the living room and why he thinks Steam hardware should be a success. "At console price points, we're going to have machines like Alienware's, which are faster than today's consoles," said Newell. "So the same price point as today, except you get better performance and you're connected to everything you like about the PC and the internet."
