The title is a bit misleading, as the article lists diverging analysts' opinions, ranging from Valve willing to sell at a loss or low margins, to high prices due to RAM and SSD price volatility.

I would pay 700 for the 2TB bundled with the new controller.

Personally, I would be interested in a different type of Steam Machine: A shrouded motherboard as a sort of LEGO base, into which you place modular blocks or cartridges that contain the PSU, CPU, USB, RAM, Wi-Fi, audio, drives, and graphics. Each block can have rails, to provide connections for power and signals, so that users don't need to futz around with wires. Just plonk a brick down onto the rails below it, and you are good for that part.

Would it actually work from an engineering perspective? No idea. All I know is that I would replace parts of my PC more often, if I didn't have to worry about screwing up in some fashion.
