You get to change the screen DPI setting so you don't have to deal with retarded huge text everywhere.
Coincidentally, this can also make Android default to using tablet UIs everywhere which tend to take better advantage of the screen.
AdAway is enough of a reason.

What about Firefox and ublock?
Since Valve seems to have more or less forgotten about whole Steam Universe project, could we be the ones who get more OEMs on board?
Getting more and better choice of Steam Machines is the only way that is missing to achieve recognition of Linux as valid gaming platform.

the only reason valve started this project is to sidestep any potential fuckery by microsoft
as microsoft shifts further towards controlling their own "app store" and cutting valve out of their main source of income they need to solidify their own operating system
a nice side benefit is a decent TV experience and probably some VR help
I can't see linux ever being a good choice for gaming. Even if they some how manage it I don't see how they'll do it for games that aren't cross compatible except for use a windows emulator like wine at a serious cost to performance.

And yes, how do you play DOS games and older console games on computer? You emulate them.
If Linux ever gets relevant, it will be so far in the future that computers won't have problem emulating what is currently ran natively on Windows.
