Yea, but just flash linux on it
Most people use the default software that came with their device. It’s all about convenience.
Yea, but if linux keeps growing how it is now eventually i think a lot of people would switch it to Linux, and I think we’ll start to see more devices that come with Linux by default
More competition is great
It’d be even better if all of the competition didn’t come with Windows.
If only we had competition in default operating systems…
I’ll be surprised to see it for sale less than 1000 euros/dollars/quid, let alone being able to get one new for less than 400… steamdeck is ridiculously affordably priced.
Do not want. I find most Lenovo products do not last.

That’s not a Lenovo product, the ThinkPads that actually last were built by IBM. These new thinkpads die after 2-3 years of heavy use too
I’ve been running a t430 for 6 years now, and all of my customers are running much newer machines. Their reliability is still undisputed. Out of everything else on the market, nothing from the other big names holds a candle.
I guarantee Lenovo’s steam deck will be 1) hot garbage and 2) Carry some variation of Think or Pad in the name. It will be a crime.
Very good chance. The rest of their stuff is trash. And if you asked the Thinkpad line to stand on it’s own merits rather than compared to the rest of the market, it would fall flat.
Like all Lenovo laptops, the users will put Linux on it anyways.
I’m such a fanboy that I will buy it if it’s think branded. I will sell a car to afford it if I have to.
