PC Gaming runs on Windows, not on Valve's OS (while valve is intending to change that progressively).

Which doesn't mean much as long as Windows runs on anything x86 and costs OEMs (relative) peanuts.

It's not like you have to pay royalties to Microsoft if you sell a PC game (but you do have to pay MS/Sony if it's a Xbox/PS game).
