Honestly, I might be huffing hopium, but I'm holding out some hope for Monday. There's been a lot of movement for weeks now, shipments to warehouses, drivers being marked as released in SteamDB, games getting marked as Steam Frame Compatible, stuff like this.
Honestly, I expected it to become available right after the Steam Machine reservation process finished, but that was interrupted by the Summer Sale, which wrapped up on Thursday. They say never to release anything on a Friday, so... I'm hoping they're just waiting until Monday to announce the price and open reservations.
Yep. I ordered a steam machine the second it was available, and I'm counting the seconds till the frame arrives. I'm a bit of a fanboy
They tend to start sales and release products on Tuesdays.
Good to know! That'll extend my copium another 24 hours nicely, if need be. If it doesn't come out then, I'll really be back to having no idea when it might drop.
