Since the Steam Machine is more like an entry PC and not a console (and will be priced as that), does that mean that SteamOS for desktop will be officially supported?

do people have issues running steamOs on different hardware? genunly wondering

Yeah, it's not released or supported outside of the Steam Deck or handheld partners. So you're probably not going to get Nvidia drivers or anything else that's not built in to the kernel.

You don't need it though, you can just run Steam in big picture mode on whatever distro you want.
