Valve explains why Steam Machines were removed
“We’ve noticed that what started out as a routine cleanup of the Steam Store navigation turned into a story about the delisting of Steam Machines,” said Valve coder Pierre-Loup in a post on Steam’s website. “That section of the Steam Store is still available, but was removed from the main navigation bar based on user traffic. Given that this change has sparked a lot of interest, we thought it’d make sense to address some of the points we’ve seen people take away from it.”
“While it’s true Steam Machines aren’t exactly flying off the shelves, our reasons for striving towards a competitive and open gaming platform haven’t significantly changed,” he added. “We’re still working hard on making Linux operating systems a great place for gaming and applications. We think it will ultimately result in a better experience for developers and customers alike, including those not on Steam.”
Valve insists that the company is still committed to Linux and has initiatives in the pipeline that it isn’t ready to talk about quite yet.

I think it sucks they removed them already, they should have gave them more of a chance to make them better?
