More rugged, and compact, but still great for hooking up to a TV or headset.

    Yeah, I either play handheld or on a TV, so dedicated pc in that form factor/price seems appealing. Maybe we’ll see something like that in the next steamdeck iteration, kinda like the vita TV (or whatever it was called).

    Major issue is upgradeability. The handheld/laptop form factors haven’t ever been too great for upgrading.

        If I recall correctly that’s the old version of steam OS. The new one runs on modified Arch (maybe?) and hasn’t been released for general use yet, otherwise I think you’d have seen other handheld using it already.

            Yeah, I’m really interested if we’ll ever get a public release. I don’t know enough about their customization to create SteamOS, but assume driver support could be a big problem.
