    Beelink mini PC + some variation of Arch Linux + Steam in big picture mode

    I still use my Alienware Alpha R1 like this for 2D games and emulation. It still works well, and linux works with a wider range of controllers natively.

      Wow I’d never heard of them, and the prices aren’t too crazy either.

      Ideally they’d have a model with a full GPU with DisplayPort and HDMI2.1 out though as well the USB-C, and then ethernet, mic and headphone jack, usb-c and normal USB in.

      Like I’d love something that could replace the Xbox Series X, but also have desktop mode with a Steam controller or mouse + keyboard connected like the Steam Deck.
