At first I thought it was a rebranded flashback, though it seems to expensive to be such a thing. I doubt they'll actually try and compete with Nintendo, Sony, & MS, though.

So it's a steam box that looks like an Atari, right? Not a bad idea on its face, but it would have been better four years ago when there was more buzz around the idea of steam boxes.

The consumer is going to have a hard time swallowing a $300 price tag for something that looks like a micro console.

The enthusiast PC market might dig this as a second gaming PC, not as a primary rig.

It seems kind of pointless really, you're just paying for the style and that's it. You can get better small form-factor PCs for the living room at a way better price point.
