If you look at nearly all reviews of handheld gaming PCs that run Windows, the major problem is Windows itself. So with Valve opening up the door to SteamOS Linux for more devices, it seems HP are interested in jumping in too.

    My take is that Windows experience sucks so bad that even HP won’t touch it. But “HP sucks” is a very valid point.

    This can go one of two ways:

    • More devices running SteamOS/Linux means more support, and helps Linux
    • HP manages to make a device so bad that it makes SteamOS look bad, and hurts Linux

    The second way shouldn’t even be possible, but never underestimate HP’s ability to make something worse than you thought possible.
