Running Windows stuff.....

I don't use Windows but I do run a lot of software made only for Windows. I don't see any problem with that.

Until the fountain runs dry, because the kingdom lords diverted the river from Valve's well castle.

I'm sorry but that doesn't make any sense.

Valve is pushing mostly open source to expand to other platforms which is a win win for everybody.

That would be true if they were actually making devs embrace SteamOS.

		They are. You're mad that Valve isn't militantly enforcing Linux-native games, which is nonsense. The OG Steam Machine did that and was DOA. Thousands of game studios are gone now, and supporting their software is important legacy work. You don't have to appreciate that, but I do. I do not give the faintest fuck about the opportunity cost you bemoan towards native UNIX games when I do this. That's your problem, not mine.

Isn't Valve's new VR headset running ARM?

I have faith!

I quite prefer that to the alternative of not running Windows stuff.

Thing is, that strengths Windows market relevance, as IBM learnt with OS/2 and its Windows compatibility.

		Good. I love exploiting Windows' market relevance, it's rather fun and engaging.
