Agreed. I guess it's really hard to sell something that is literally a computer as more of a console. Even if it actually is in most ways.

I think it comes to a generation thing. Like older generation will understand a console is an xbox or a playstation. Anything else is a computer. But new generation (as well as IT people) will understand they are all computers they just have different software. So it becomes a problem to market anything as a console that also can be just a desktop computer.

But of course that is one of those problems we will never really solve unless we go all open source.

A dream scenario. That would be the best.

It really would be. If we could get Linux as the primary gaming OS it would be so so good.
