    @HenryLeeFN it is, it runs on steamOS which is based on arch linux, the steam deck has a full desktop outside the big picture mode of steam and you can switch between it anytime

        @HenryLeeFN note handheld pcs also have incredible price to performance, the rog ally has a better cpu and gpu than that mini pc, and the steam deck, while having a slightly worse cpu, only 4 cores (does not matter much for me), it has a better gpu than the mini pc

        TLDR: both steam deck and rog ally are better than the mini pc for gaming

          @HenryLeeFN you also might be confused du to the nintendo switch, which is very closed and limited yet the steam deck and rog ally allows you to do anything that a pc may do, including game dev (game builder garage does not count)

                  To disprove your point, the Steam Deck's GPU is more powerful than the mini pc

                    @HenryLeeFN you can literally connect a mouse and keyboard to it either via bluetooth or wire, also i found this on google!

                    and the graphics are great on deck, and even if they weren't it's still a pc

                              @HenryLeeFN You are the one telling us a pc requires a keyboard and mouse

                              No, the Xbox OS is not open enough (Scratch doesn't vount)

                                  @HenryLeeFN it runs on windows and pretty much is a pc in a box but not completly, the steam deck doesn't have the features that make it a console
