    So, I got a knock on my door today at 9:30am. Strange, because the USPS and UPS deliveries usually don't come to my neighborhood until around 3:00pm - 6:00pm.

    So I open the door, and I see this on my doorstep. And then I check the Sender's address, and do a little backflip in my head.

    I cut open the packages, and I see these two lovely items.

    I'm in the process of setting this stuff up now (downloading updates), and looking to start playing around with this.

    My new steam controller is lying next to me, and with a few of the games I've tested so far, it does feel strange to keep reminding myself that I no longer need the mouse sitting next to me, and that I've got to practice with the Steam controller to really 'get it'.

    Well built device. Doesn't feel like a solid brick, more like a Nintendo product. You can feel it's sturdy but it still feels... fun?
