Man I so hope microcenter or fries or such takes this to heart and makes laptops and desktops with something like applecare and the genius bar.
Me too! Maybe the Steam name is just the boost the Linux market share needs. But wait, I thought Fry’s went out of business. Do they still exist, and the two near me just imploded?
Regardless, MicroCenter is way better, and also closer than either Fry’s was to me 😎
There was only like one frys in my area so I had not known they disapeared completely.
Fry’s died of COVID
Ironic as covid caused a huge surge of tech purchases
Well, that and the embezzlement.
This is awesome, hopefully this means we might get new living room Steam Machines in the future. That would be very cool. I know you can build your own by getting a cheap AMD mini PC and installing unofficial Steam OS on it but it would be nice to have the real deal with an official Steam OS version.
Mini PC/PC with a script to run
gamescope -fe -- steamon boot is as close as you’ll get atm. That will run Steam in fullscreen embedded mode.I have a PC all set up for it but there is a bug with 10xx series NVIDIA cards that causes the screen to go black when the cursor is hidden. Very upsetting. Need to throw an AMD card in there.
I hope this goes better than last time.
Last time they were trying to get devs to make games for Linux.
Now the steamdeck can play just about anything. The only exceptions are anti-cheat stuff and a random thing here and there. But that is really rare.
So, I guess what I’m trying to say is that it can’t be worse than last time.
