Valve Co-Founder Says Tim Cook Didn't Visit Valve HQ
Apple CEO Tim Cook didn't visit Valve headquarters according to company co-founder Gabe Newell. The rumor, originally reported by AppleInsider, was squashed by Newell in a podcast interview.
Video game website Kotaku had a preview of the podcast from Seven Day Cooldown that included this quote:

We actually, we all sent mail to each other, going, "Who's Tim Cook meeting with? Is he meeting with you? I'm not meeting with Tim Cook." So we're... it's one of those rumors that was stated so factually that we were actually confused.The report of the meeting between Cook and Valve executives set off a torrent of speculation about partnerships between the companies, including rumors of Valve's Steam service integrating with the App Store or an Apple television.
No one here was meeting with Tim Cook or with anybody at Apple that day. I wish we were! We have a long list of things we'd love to see Apple do to support games and gaming better. But no, we didn't meet with Tim Cook. He seems like a smart guy, but I've never actually met him.

and why is this news? APPLE STOCK went down over 20 bucks today, that is news.
You want me to write a front page story every time Apple's stock moves 3.5%?We try to contain that to major milestones and even then it's too much.

A lot of people, and a lot of people here especially. Tim Cook meeting with Valve could mean a more serious approach to gaming on the Mac. That's a huge issue that people have been wanting fixed for a long while now. This seemed like a step forward, but it apparently never happened. Good to know, I guess. No expectations.

Denying a rumor that gives you outsized attention and buzz is a gross error.
I think it was carefully worded to put pressure on Apple:
"No one here was meeting with Tim Cook or with anybody at Apple that day. I wish we were! We have a long list of things we'd love to see Apple do to support games and gaming better."

Man, if you go around the internet to comment on all the things you don't care about you'd have the busiest and least meaningful life imaginable.

Ahh..The power of rumor sites at it's best.
"We actually, we all sent mail to each other, going, "Who's Tim Cook meeting with? Is he meeting with you? I'm not meeting with Tim Cook." So we're... it's one of those rumors that was stated so factually that we were actually confused."
So these guys at Valve seem to read the rumor sites.
Ha !
MR and AI could conspire and make stuff up and bring down the whole tech industry.
funny stuff indeed.
Oh. and btw guys. Doing that could manipulate the stock market if any of the market analyst actually listen to rumors.
*cough*
