The Steam Machine is adressed to Gaming - so the System that it uses. Zorin is a common OS. I wouldn't compare bot too much.
The Hype about it was big because it uses Linux and come from Valve. But after the Announcement of the Prices, it cools down.

Yeah but everyone now have hype with movies DIY PC building similar to the Steam Machine. I don't get it. It is company VALVE - for me it is because it is one product from Linux for gaming but System76 could be the same. I don't get this but in Japan,India and China it is sold out. In Europe there exists preorders. In my country they don't selling that and count tax and etc. if I order I must be Insane. Propably this is box for people who can buying that. Ferrari also Volksvagen also are a car but have a diffrents price and experience and exclusive.
Because of the Price. So, People want demonstrate that You can have the Power (or more) for a similar Price when buying Parts and building by Yourself.
System76 sells PC's. That is their Business. Valve's Buisness is not Hardware. The Hardware - Steam Machine and Steam Deck plus Stuff to it - is only secondary. And it targets their Main Focus: Games. They only offer an own Machine Interface for their Stuff if You want so.
