Why would you want to download SteamOS? Good question. In fact, there is no real reason for you to run the operating system at all. It's severely limited and most Steam games don't even support it, yet. Out of the games I own on the platform, only 41 currently support SteamOS, a majority of which are either games from Valve -- Portal, Left 4 Dead, Half-Life -- or from smaller, independent developers.
To make matters worse, only 16 games out of the 41 I own that support SteamOS have full or partial support for game controllers. I must admit, it's cool to play some of these games with a controller, although this can also be done via Steam's Big Picture mode. One of the games I tested was Left 4 Dead 2, which included full support for game controllers, and it was relatively smooth.
At first, performance on SteamOS appeared to be on par with that of Windows. As I continued to play, however, the game completely froze and I was forced to quit. I also experienced freezing and low frame rates playing Brutal Legend and Dungeon Defenders, two games that aren't necessarily high-end.
Despite the beta tag, I found the actual operating system to be fairly stable. SteamOS is being designed and optimized for the living room experience. SteamOS ships with our Steam Client program, which is proprietary software, in addition to proprietary 3rd party drivers. In the SteamOS standard configuration, the Steam Client program serves as a user interface and provides connectivity to our Steam online services. That being said, you can still access the standard Linux desktop.
