(The Switch clocks in at $299.

Alienwares Aurora R12startsat $1,099.)

But Valve, with its brand-new Steam Deck handheld, aims to shake up the orthodoxy for good.

Introducing Steam Deck: powerful, portable PC gaming starting at $399.

Designed by Valve, powered by Steam.

Theyve truly thought of everything.

We have some questions.

Regardless, everyone interested in games should at least beintriguedby the Steam Deck.

Silver linings people, silver linings.
