Hopefully they dont make the same mistake ASUS did. The fanciest hardware in the world won't help if the software doesn't work out of the box.
Steam Deck got so much right, straight out of the gate. The suspend-resume is nothing short of amazing. The UI is 100% muscle, 0% fat.
IMO, starting with Windows as a base is an automatic setback. There's a strong chance that it'll interrupt your game to ask you if you want to set Edge to be your default browser or some stupid shit.
I get this place is very pro-Linux, but come on. 30+ years of using Windows here, it's never done anything like that.
It was a bit tongue in cheek but since Win10, there's more "nervous laughter" in the room than there was before.
