This is going to be crazy, so far it has been reported that Valve has already signed up 12 manufacturers to create Steam Machines, holy cow!
Here's me thinking we will have 4 or 5 top and engadget has come out with a list of 12 that have apparently signed up to make them:

All should be revealed shortly as CES is only a day away where companies usually announce their new kit. Although Valve actually has a press conference at around 5PM PT (1AM GMT for us brits!) so who knows what could be announced today!
If more boxes come out looking like the iBuyPower one I will be happy, we covered that here for those that missed it.
What are you hoping Valve will announce directly, or do you think it will be a general get excited for Steam Machines kind of thing press talk? Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

QuoteThus far, the only third party we know of that's making a Steam Machine is iBuyPower -- today, that all changes. Alienware, Falcon Northwest, iBuyPower, CyberPowerPC, Origin PC, Gigabyte, Materiel.net, Webhallen, Alternate, Next, Zotac and Scan Computers are among the first companies signed on to support Valve's initiative

They are probably just resellers, just like they sell other consoles. But yes, that would be great if we could buy Steam Machines in local stores. Even if they will probably cost more than in the US.
Has anyone seen anything anywhere about how companies see the steambox? I wonder if it will have its own category on steam? For instance, I would love to see FIFA 15 on steambox (maybe EA would see it as a console and not a rival).
Time to start pestering EA I think.
Just don't mention Linux. Might cause a severe allergic reaction.
I was also suprised to see that. Webhallen is a great store with friendly staff, (at least in Malmö) fast shipping if ordering online and mostly nice prices. Won´t be buying a Steam machine though, since my gaming rig is about 6 months old, and I´m still upgrading it (recently an SSD from Webahllen). Now I know where to get my Steam controller though.
