It’ll be interesting to see how the Steam Machine in January affects this.
It might not be a huge immediate boost. I have friends who want to buy a Steam Machine on day one - but they already use a SteamDeck as their primary gaming rig.
I expect the Steam Machine to catch on the same way the SteamDeck seems to have - word of mouth.
I know I bought my SteamDeck after a friend demoed theirs to me, and it kind of sold itself.

Ready Player GNU.
For November 2025 the overall operating system share is:
Windows - 94.79%
