So,I'll build a new new computer and I'll want to play a lot of upcoming,new and very old(even 1999).I was wondering what will be possible on the new OS?Even though its Linux,will it run PC games for Windows and will it only play Steam games?

Since it is Linux based, unlikely that it will play Windows-only games.
Whatever Steam supports on Linux will probably run.

I think it is a bit too early to give an answer, any attempt would be a guess!

Right. SteamOS is very much still in infancy. Give it some time and see what happens.

I don't mind dual boot either...but if the next Windows is going to be a "MacOS" type of thing then no way.... A PC has to be a PC where you can create, experiment, sometime swear.... but a PC.... if I wanted to use something for brainless I would use my Nexus 7 for everything, but that is a tablet xD

So let's see how SteamOS is going to develop!

Yeah,I guess its too early.But I wonder why they did this.They'll have a hard time persuading developers to code for this and PC and PS and XBox and Nintendo.
