Is this the rumoured Xbox handheld that everyone has been going on about for months?
I believe somewhere else that idea/project was taken back to the workshop and this is something else but close to that.
I read that somewhere as well, it coincided with reports of SteamOS being more performant that Windows 11 for gaming. How related they both were I have no idea but it sounds like MS were already aware and are trying to resolve that here as it prevents resource intensive processes from launching (desktop, etc).
