Valve is making its SteamOS Linux distribution compatible with more desktop hardware, including Nvidia graphics, so you can build your own Steam Machine.

    Oh they were looking for long term companies like Valve. So I suggested 2 companies.

    Steam being an actual company behind a distro gives at least an impression of support stability because they have a economical incentive to kind of keep it going.

    SteamOS is not a long term distro yet (especially considering v1 is not the same distro even though it has the same name)

      Oh I can see using ubuntu over debian then. Still I would have went suse with redhat as they were really the two big enterprise ones. suse was actually the first linux in the aughts were a guy at my workplace through it on a laptop and basically everything worked. I mean it needed more specific drivers to be at its best but it was functional out the gate which was a big deal then.
