No doubt it will be another handheld running Windows though instead of Linux

I will game on a Windows based PC, but Linux is a must have on hand held - Windows is too resource intensive, developers are not going to be able to get the same OS optimization out of Windows that they can with Linux

This is why I chose the deck. Least powerful in the segment on paper but those Windows handhelds are not going to age well lol.

Better support plus it drives Linux as a gaming OS which I'm a fan of. The more consumers choose to game on Linux the more adoption it will get. Look at windows 11. What horse shit. 12 isn't shaping up to be much better.
