Markus "Notch" Persson, creator of Minecraft used his own personal soapbox to applaud Valve's announcement of SteamOS, and the forthcoming Steam Box announcement that everyone thinks will be part of the trilogy of announcements this week.
"Valve is saving the entire gaming world, but I all I can do is mumble passive aggressively about crowbars."
"Seriously, this overly drawn out steambox announcement thing is amazing news. Win8's been worrying me. <3 valve"
"Notch" has been very worried over what Windows 8 means for PC gaming, and this sentiment is shared by many in the game development community.
