That's a Steam Machine. The idea didn't take off because it's just a pre-built PC (and because they trusted other companies to do it for them). It's a highly competitive market with very low margins.

When they announced the Deck they did recommend one particular small box as a development machine as it matched the Deck's performance very closely. You might try looking for that. Although by now there are probably more powerful ones available for the same price.
