Valve moves SteamOS to the desktop... The only trick would be getting corporate buy in.

I just can't see people standing for ads in their os at best and paying a continual fee at worst.

“Might want to be making…”

Weird ass attempt at future perfect tense?

Seems like an odd direction when a lot services are moving online and to SaaS based solutions, removing the dependency of a specific underlying OS.

This is just another move in that direction. Maybe the next version will be a thin client where you stream most of your apps. The pricing wouldn't change, only where apps are run.

Since when has windows 11 been deprecated? After windows 7 I switched to Linux and all I hear is new windows is around the corner and even worse! How does this company even keep customers, when all they do is upgrade their windows?!

They definitely want to, this news "leak" is meant to determine if they will.

Anyone got any good reccs for Linux? Preferably something that plays nicely with both laptop and desktop.

I've been running PopOS, and it's been flawless.

I've had a very good experience with Fedora for the past few years, but I've also heard good things about Endeavor OS for an Arch based experience

Like the others say, Linux Mint. If you wanna spend a bunch more time configuring everything and solving issues then you can use other distros like Arch and Debian. For new users though, I suggest Linux Mint.
