Valve buys mysterious ‘Steam Static’ domain

It’s been more than a month since Valve officially announced its Steam gaming machines. Though the Steam Machine isn’t scheduled to be launched until 2014, more details continue to emerge with a first look at Valve’s Steam Machine prototype being revealed this past week. To make things a bit more interesting, Valve has registered the domain name SteamStatic.com. The name was privately registered through Network Solutions earlier this month, but the WHOIS record clearly shows Valve Corporation as the registrant. The only information that is marked private is contact information like the email address.
