It's hilarious to still see takes like this - Windows Central

"Don't buy a Steam Deck, if you want a gaming handheld buy an ROG Ally โ€” here's why"

There's so many problems with that article it's just funny, and sad.

While yes, Windows 11 out of the box can do some things SteamOS can't - entirely fair.

It makes out like SteamOS can't do things a PC can. Like word processing, web browsing, installing other stores etc.

"I even plugged a wireless dongle into my Ally and used a keyboard and mouse to write up Word docs on the ASUS gaming device."

Actual quote from the article ๐Ÿคฆ

*whispers* there's a full complete desktop mode on Steam Deck that's been there since Day 1 that has been widely reported on
@gamingonlinux (And itโ€™s the best DE out there.)
@gamingonlinux ๐Ÿ˜ฑ the possibilities are endless ๐Ÿคฏ I guess you could even use it as a calculator
@gamingonlinux i'm suure people would be buying the 'asus gaming device', or the steam deck entirely to write word docs
