I mean, that makes sense, because its just running (a slightly restricted) version Linux of under the hood, which I is what I run on my gaming and work pc
It's an immutable version of stripped Arch, dunno if that counts as 'slightly restricted'. You can disable the read-only mode if you want to and know what you're doing.
That's why I said slightly, for the average user you can't do quite as much
I mean for average console user, you can do a whole lot. Even for your average Windows user.
And if you drive Linux... I'm not sure why you couldn't handle SteamOS?
I can, what I am saying is the way the steamos is built, its a bit harder for new users to do more advanced stuff, not that its that limited. I so admit I could've phrased IT better though
Yeah but it's still a hand held, that kind of power isn't expected.
