    I fled Windows to Linux 4 years ago, I got SO tired of the BS and annoyances. Have not regretted that decision one iota ever.

    So if Windows ever gets installed on my Deck, you can just assume someone stole it from me.

      Right? My Linux instance has been the same for 8 years. Same workflows, same no-nonsense. Every time I open the start bar on my work computer and it lags for 5 second to load some bull shit I don’t need I get so mad /rant

      Sorry, but I just had to get that off my chest. What’s your setup like?

        I had been running Pop OS on my aging laptop, which finally died a week before my Deck arrived last year. The Deck completely removed any thought of replacing it lol.

        So now I just run a Deck, with the ability to dock to my projector or work monitor if I wish, with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard that I can move where ever when I dock to one of those points.

        I also have a super-lightweight 13" travel tablet-type monitor left over from an old set up, and I’m working on getting everything together that I need to be able to quickly mount it on top of my Deck when I’m playing handheld, for a screen upgrade for my 40s eyes. I don’t mind the extra power, as I’m normally plugged in when playing.
