I mean, thats your opinion, but is not factually correct.
This demonstrates a pretty foundational misunderstanding of what a Windows device is. From your view, the only thing that is a Windows device is one that runs pure desktop Windows OS, which is not correct.
In 2009, the iTG xpPhone was a smartphone that ran embedded Windows XP. It had every feature that a desktop with XP had. Now, would you recommend that phone as a replacement for a desktop computer, since it has every feature a desktop computer has? If you were a moron, perhaps. But since I think you aren't a moron, why wouldn't you make that recommendation?
Application. A person uses a computer differently than they use a phone. And a person uses an Xbox console differently than they use a desktop computer. The Xbox cannot and should not replace a desktop computer, because it is designed for an entirely different purpose. The Xbox has the primary goal of gaming, and is built around that. It doesnt need every feature of Windows, just the ones that facilitate gaming. So the OS is streamlined for that. But it is still a Windows device. It is not a Linux device, or an Apple device. It is a device built on Windows, just like desktops with Windows OS, the xpPhone, and any other device that is built with a Windows based operating system.
Any device which is a Windows device can be transformed into a non-Windows device simply by removing all of its Windows components. Doing this to an Xbox would mean it would no longer function, since nobody has created an alternate OS for Xbox AFAIK.
you haven't grasped anything I've been saying. an xbox is not comparable to any windows device, point blank.
An Xbox IS a Windows device.
