New Linux Gamer Survey For December

Quoting: IlyaI'm disappointed with the Alienware GPU not being replaceable

You're not the only one. This hardware looks super nice to me, but with GPU that you cannot replace I'm not going to spend so much money. I already have PS4 (which is super loud :( ) which has similar look and size, but if Alienware would have replaceable GPU (even for other GPU made by them) I would consider their Steam Machine. Now unfortunately it won't happen.

This month I answered "yes" for wine. But it was only for LackeyCCG...

Quoting: TheBossSofaPC/ConsolePC is exactly as the name might suggest, a unit under your tv gaming from your sofa.

I asked this last month too, but never got an answer: what do you call a PC with several monitors: 1 or more on the desk, and a TV in front of the sofa?
That's what I use and I'd call it a desktop PC / sofa PC - please add that as an option too! ;-)
I use it roughly 50/50 from both positions, depending on the game I play.

Quoting: Stupendous Man

If you're using it as a pc, but you have it connected to a TV as another monitor, it's not a sofa PC/Steam Machine. It's a PC with an additional monitor you happen to have somewhere else.

Quoting: aLI want to buy a high end steam machine so it counts as a linux sale, but i want that gpu in my main computer... and the low/medium gpu from my main computer on my steam machine.

Which steam machine allows me to do that?

Also, which ship to europe? most i have seen so far are US only, arent they?

There is this one: Materiel.net
But it seems they ship only to France or Belgium.

Would be nice if the survey were tied to your account, so your earlier submitted answers were filled in automatically.

Not possible to do with Google Forms. Although that did give me an interesting idea on making a simple form built by me to do this instead of relying on google.

Note to self: start gaming under sourcemage. (Although, truth be told, installing sourcemage IS a video game.)

I'm pretty sure you would have a considerable drop in the number of participants if you require login to do the survey. Especially that you don't let us log in with open id, or our google account etc, many will be uncomfortable creating an account just for this site trusting that you can keep the information securely, or simply may not be bothered to remember that one account they are supposed to log in to once a month for the survey.

I strongly advise against requiring login for the surveys. In the very least, you should have an "anonymous" option.

Hey! What a surprise! It's kind of off-topic but I just logged into Steam and I got the Steam Survey for the first time in nearly a year. I might just be "lucky", but since it's the first survey after the official release of the Steam Machines, anyone else is in the same situation?
