$1049 for the base package? Much better than I thought it was going to be. I figured minimum $1200.

I mean, it is $1200 if you want a controller included

		If you want a steam controller included. You can use also PS4/PS5 or Xbox controllers easily on linux (and thus steamOS) nowadays. I use a Ps5 controller on my setup, even though I never had a ps4 or ps5.
