    With everything trying to compete with the deck I can see why. Gaming laptops are going to have to compete with those from now on, too.

      Exactly. What’s the point? Steam Deck exists and is a more reasonable option for gaming than laptops. Get a Chromebook or MacBook Air and a Deck and save yourself a bunch of cash.

          I guess one would have to define “nice”, usually it’s power:price:weight pick 2. I am assuming that weight is important, otherwise it’s just a portable desktop.
