And it’s gotten to a point where it’s being used as a utility computer in places, if I recall. That could’ve potentially sent sales snowballing away from typical console sale figures.

It’s a Linux machine with good cpu, 16gb of ram, KDE and you can install stuff with flatpak AND distrobox. If you have a dock, there really is no reason not to use as a normal computer.
