Project Q is the upcoming streaming only device that will allow you to play games installed on a PlayStation 5 remotely.
It has not been announced if the handheld will allow streaming of games from the cloud and is rumoured to cost between £250 - £300.

Will you be picking one up later this year?

You don’t have to install Windows. The Linux OS can boot into desktop mode and it functions just like a desktop PC with the Dock. I have it hooked up to a monitor and a TV via separate docks and the monitor dock has a mouse and keyboard. It works great.

I’ve never used Linux before. I’ve only ever used Windows and macOS. Also can the Steam OS play non Steam Windows games. Could my daughter play Roblox, Fall Guys and Sims 4 on it?

The SteamOS Linux install is skinned pretty similarly to Windows/macOS. It’s not much of an adjustment unless you need all kinds of custom software. I can’t say for certain about those games but you can definitely run Windows games in desktop mode. I’ve played several of the Assassin’s Creed games and run a few emulators in Desktop mode.
