I love Valve for this... I know that Stallman will never consider SteamBox to be open, but this makes it a dream of openness compared to other consoles. Plus it means that maybe AMD's linux drivers will not fall behind, considering 2 of my 3 PC have AMD inside I'm happy about it.

AMD has the chance here to become more important. Valve always said they prefer the open drivers by Intel, and AMD has good ones.
Yes! and its a well know fact you can speedup a pregnancy by using more women :S

If you aim for many children, more women are the way to go. See my point? Truth lies somewhere inbetween.

2013 was a great year for Linux.
