• As somebody who participates in the overall PC ecosystem, it’s totally great when faster wireless networks and standards come out or when graphics get faster. Windows 8 was like this giant sadness. It just hurts everybody in the PC business.Gabe Newell

• Most people who end up being successful have good grades , but its orthogonal- there’s no extra information than if they put together a website and have bunch of fans who love coming and seeing what they’re doing. Gabe Newell

• The PC is successful because we’re all benefiting from the competition with each other. If Twitter comes along, our games benefit. If Nvidia makes better graphics technology, all the games are going to shine. If we come out with a better game, people are going to buy more PCs. Gabe Newell
