I see the nerdy point of this but considering that the link costs peanuts is it really worth the effort?

Use your pi to learn Python!

There is no Steam Link. It's gone extinct apparently, so unless you already have one....

you could just use the Steam App though

Oh, never knew that. How do you use the app? Client for smartTVs?

I have no idea. I have a Steam Link but it seems Valve have stopped selling them in favour of using an app to stream from a desktop to any android device or android powered TV.

I really like the Link. With it's bluetooth, wifi and USB ports it makes from a very convenient remote port replicator and network card. I won't be buying any new TV or Android TV any time soon. Far too expensive.

My Raspberry Pi will be an Amiga Emulator until my kids complete ZooL.

They must learn the hard way, as i had to.

That's verging on child cruelty [emoji23]
