Not a fan of prebuilts tbh. As far as linux goes, Bazzite is free so create a bootable thumbdrive with rufus and literally just follow the installation prompts. If you can’t even do that, then maybe you ahould learn how to.
To top it off, the “benefits” you’re mentioning are literally the same as if you bought a prebuilt pc.
Do you have a favorite pre-built PC that ships with Linux and Steam installed?
That’s something I want pretty badly, but haven’t run across a good lead for.
With a good recommendation, I might not wait for January!

Why would you want “steam” installed? It’s just a normal program, you can install it yourself in 5 minutes.
Because having Steam pre-installed signals that the hardware producer planned for gaming and has done some basic testing for gaming.
The new “Steam Machine Verified” badge is the most exciting part of all this.

That really doesn’t make much sense. Valve creates steamos, donates time (employee time, i mean) and money to open source projects, they improve proton a lot and what you’re interested in is having steam installed? Ok…
