[Mark the Red]

Hello All,

Need a quick guidance and advice:

Was just about to pull the trigger on the Asus Chromebox and do the install. This thread is fantastic and Matt you are a great man.

I do have a quick question that I hope would help me. My main goal is to have a Chromebox boot into XBMC but also be able to load Steam as a secondary function. I am total noob to Linux but Matt's guide seems straightforward enough. I am a little confused as to the best way to configure this:

Do I
(a) Install the ChromeOS + OpenElec script option from this thread and then somehow (?) install Linux based Steam from inside Openelec?

or

(b) Install the ChromeOS + Ubuntu script option from this thread and then install both XBMC (linux) and Steam (linux) from within Ubuntu and have the computer boot to XBMC for the wife's piece of mind.

For simplicity sake I would prefer option (a) but from my reading of this I am not sure I can install Steam from within Openelec XBMC.

I tried my best to google my own answers, but most of the solutions I found require heavy linux scripting to do what I want.

Your advice or google links would be most welcome to help me in this matter.

PS: End result of both the fast booting XBMC of this link:

and the quick switch to Steam shown in this link would be divine:
