I'm sure this has already been described somewhere, but if I install SteamOS, do they provide a compatibility layer so that I can play games without Linux support? Or will I need to dual boot Windows?


Well, there's this:

"In-home Streaming

You can play all your Windows and Mac games on your SteamOS machine, too. Just turn on your existing computer and run Steam as you always have - then your SteamOS machine can stream those games over your home network straight to your TV!"

You will need to dual-boot. Or stream from another PC running Windows.


You will probably be able to run wine.
