noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo idea 
 
Steam Box? 
There's a countdown on the Valve website with only 20 minutes left on it:
http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/

A lot of people are expecting the "Steam box", Valve's pc/console thingy that's been hyped for a while.... 
Nope, It Was SteamOS 
http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/SteamOS/

Now another countdown is going... another announcement in just under 2 days! 
Playing Steam Games On The Tv 
would be kind of cool. 
Steam On TV 
I already do that with an older XP Pro laptop (XP Home doesn't look right) and a older 27" TV via SVHS. I put some steam games and a couple of emulators on it (Project 64, MAME and such) with the roms on a networked NAS as well as movies, TV shows and so on. Combined with a Firefly remote and a wireless Xbox 360 controller (I also have a wired Logitech dual stick, a wolf king FPS keypad, a wireless mouse, an X-Arcade tank stick and a separate track ball) it covers pretty much everything that a steam box will do and then some.

I make playlists for the movies and television shows on a different PC and play those using VLC (Windows XP's Media Center wants to place the file on the local HD before playing them while VLC will stream them right away).

I might play around with the new SteamOS but it's unlikely that I'll switch over to it unless it has the same functionality for running native Windows software in some sort of VM like WINE built into it. 
There Is Hope... 
Cool Idea... 
This Is Huge.. 
Re #23373 
hhmmmmm... I am not sure to understand why there can be hope in this... can you elaborate please ? 
No I Can�t, 
but there may be hope... 
@JPL 
Actually i can, cause a friend of mine has his "roots" in this particular area.
He came up with saying sth like there is "only" hope left with those people being buried alive under their selfmade housings.
Pragmatic fatalism i think...

Do i feel sad about this, do you?!? Of course, we all have the same feelings when shit happens...

But with what i meant there is hope, is just the fact of new islands being born out of the sea, my Lovecraftian mind keeps seeing the connections....

And this board is all about Shub-Niggurath, so all hail the Chtul�hu i na noofdreg wratfud! 
Mfx 
OK, that is more clear now.. thanks for the clarification :) 
Box Breaker 
redeemer schemer - gesticulation and a few blinds 
OS X 
Damn - i'm *this* close to switching to OS X.
Would you believe i'm playing half-life2 for the first time (via Steam). Close to the best game i've seen. 8)

I've got my NV 320M Core2Duo macbook hooked up with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse and a usb hub, playing this thing till it gets too hot. Funny thing is, i also have a corei5 + Intel3000 macbook, but it gets 1/3 the fps than the C2D/NV320 (150 vs 55 fps), and heats up in about 1 minute flat. What a piece of shit Intel are.. All the forums saying how the 3000 was about the same as the 320M are bullshit. 
Dzip Binary 
Anyway - here's an i386 OS X dzip binary.
The one on the dzip homepage seems to be PPC.
