With the "Stim Machine," French hardware retailer LDLC has launched a provocative alternative to Valve's Steam Machine. The cube-shaped mini-PC also costs €1,039 ($1,179), but comes with a more powerful Radeon RX 9060 XT and standard Mini-ITX hardware. However, it does not ship with SteamOS pre-installed – and that is exactly where opinions on Reddit are divided.
