SteamOs Review

SteamOS is based on Debian GNU/Linux, well known for its stability. It aims to bring PC gaming into the living room.

SteamOS uses Linux kernel 3.10 and GNOME as Its desktop environment. The system includes basic GNOME applications, such as Brasero, Dconf, Baobab, GNOME Terminal, Evince, Disks, Eye of GNOME, GNOME Dictionary, and GNOME Screenshot. The Iceweasel web browser and the Steam for Linux client are also installed, along with a shortcut for the SteamOS desktop.

Most Linux users are excited to see this operating system which is based on Linux, so I came with these quick screenshots.

Valve has announced a new operating system based on Linux called SteamOS. It is said to run on any living room hardware.

"As we’ve been working on bringing Steam to the living room, we’ve come to the conclusion that the

SteamOS combines the rock-solid architecture of Linux with a gaming experience built for the big screen.
It will be available soon as a free stand-alone operating system for living room machines."
