They don't need to pay him.
Steam OS runs on ubanto and debian.

So drivers are always outdated and slow out of the box.

Yes the Steam runtime binary is based on ubuntu's binaries while the OS they are using for the standalone OS is Debian jessie.
Get your facts.

being based and running on debian are completely different things

Nothing, SteamOS fails because of shit drivers for Linux. Something that has always been an issue. Why people are all the sudden surprised by this makes no sense at all.

they paid him in Windows user friendliness, usability and usefulness

SteamOS is like Android. It will take over 10 years for it to get developed to a useable state, provided they manage to shill many enough manufacturers into using it by default. It will require obscene amounts of computing power even for simple transition graphics because it's so poorly optimized.

I like the idea but building anything off Linux has never produced a well optimized, butter smooth system. It's always raw edges and bits of glue and no matter how many nerds furiously try to fix it, they can't.

I was expecting bitching against linux performances but his review seems pretty legit aside from the nvidia/android shilling at the end. He does have some valid concerns (that people even here have been expressing since steamOS was announced).

>>51404870
Drivers aren't the only issue. The main performance hits come from D3D games using a translation layer to OpenGL, adding a massive overhead.
