MODERATORS
I understand that people are hyped about a Linux distribution developed by a company they really care about. However, please be aware that SteamOS is focused at being an (almost) exclusive gaming OS with very limited hardware support. It doesn't support NVIDIA video cards, for instance.
Steam already runs perfectly fine in most generalist distributions and you'll have a wonderful time if you install them.

You may want to update what you said because they will soon do so.
When it happens I will. Currently, installing SteamOS with a nvidia card just borks.
