Between Asus, Lenovo, and now MSI, it feels like every major PC gaming brand is lining up to compete with Valve’s Steam Deck. MSI’s Instagram teaser for next week’s CES announcement doesn’t give too many hints about the specs or features of its competitor. But it does seem to confirm it’ll have plen...
Last time I heard that, it was that it was the object of a hackathon they ran amongst employees. So not sure if they are actually still working on that.
I would be thrilled if they sponsored Bazzite and used it with a non-deck skin. Win-win-win situation (funding for Bazzite, better device and FOSS competition)
Windows is a selling point for these companies. Never mind the absolute shithole that is Windows UX without a keyboard and mouse, little Timmy can use it to play Roblox and Forkknife!
For sure, and tbh to really take advantage of FOSS they would need to be tech companies in the first place (i.e. know how to hire developers and manage software projects). The next company that can actually value add on software to the product will have a real contender, till then it's just hardware manufacturers filling in the shrinking niche of games that don't run on the steam deck yet.
