Linus (LTT) argues that despite middling gaming performance, the Steam Machine excels as a compact desktop workstation thanks to the seamless and user-friendly experience provided by SteamOS. (www.youtube.com)

I do think this is in general good advertising for Linux.

Sort of, but unfortunately the Steam Machine is supply constrained, so more advertising for the SM specifically isn't that helpful. Maybe he should try other Linux OEMs too, or beginner friendly KDE distros in general like Kubuntu

Talking about it running Linux and that being a viable option defiantly is. It is the Linux aspect I am referring to no at all the SM.
