Sleeping Dogs keeps crashing on my PC now, really weird. It's either the most recent game patch or the latest GPU drivers because nothing else has changed.
The Steam Box is going to be really interesting as to how Valve manage to pull it off. I've been experimenting with a small(ish) second PC sitting under my TV as a media centre/games machine and originally wanted to use Linux, which the Steam Box will have.
About 15% of my Steam library runs on Linux and drivers are a complete pain to both source and install. I ended up buying a cheap XP disc - Everything now runs but Steam Big Picture mode doesn't. Gah!
Otherwise, I was pretty impressed. The PC only really has a decent GPU - my old 560ti - with an old AMD 6000+ dual core, 4GB of DDR2 RAM and an ancient SATA1 hard drive. I'm getting excellent performance in Skyrim on High at 1080p with about 30 mods. No graphics ones though.
