Well, it looks like the Steam Box may be DOA. Xi3's version of the Steam Box will START at $999 (with a 128GB SSD), with a 256GB model for $1,340 and a 512GB model for $1,750. Pretty much anyone could set up a good gaming setup with their tv for far less than that. If it was $300 it ought have had a small chance of at least being popular with a niche audience, but I think any chance of it being successful at all is dead now that the cheapest model is $1,000.
