Here’s the secret Steam Machine that Valve probably used to test headsets.
Jon Bringus isn’t saying how he obtained this unicorn, but it looks completely legit!
It self-IDs as a “Valve Steambox,” fires up a Steam screen, makes Steam hardware sounds, and natively pairs with Steam Controllers! Intriguing components inside, like a presence-sensing front panel that fires up its iconic ring light. It appears to have a VirtualLink USB-C port, so it probably helped Valve designers test wired VR headsets before that standard failed.
