My net is too fast to load this UI.

As we’ve been working on bringing Steam to the living room, we’ve come to the conclusion that the environment best suited to delivering value to customers is an operating system built around Steam itself.

This is an early beta, so it isn't designed to be easy to install.

How many are willing to try it ? I dont want to format my drive
