    1000$ may seem like a lot but its a small price to pay when you think of the new boat Gaben will be able to own soon.

      Neither Gabe nor Valve will earn much from the higher price, because they have to pay a lot more for the Hardware that makes the Steamdeck. It is not that they raised the price out of smite but due to AI companies with their gigantic Hardware glutony.
