@sean My biggest take-away from Steam Machines is selling underpowered single-purpose consoles is tough if you're not already entrenched in that area. I think the folks that licensed the Atari estate are going to find that lesson out the hard way.

the ultimate scam

I'm still a student for 3 weeks so I'm testing Visual Studio online with my azure for students thing. They make you create a VM just for that, doesn't sound like a scam at all

How often do you think you hear someone mention the titanic movie? 1-3 months?
