“linux desktop handheld” is not wrong.
Title: “is finally rolling out to the wild”
Content:
Ahead of Legion Go S shipping, we will be shipping a beta of SteamOS which should improve the experience on other handhelds, and users can download and test this themselves.
So, neither that product is rolling out yet, nor the SteamOS beta is rolling out yet?
(This quote is from Valves announcement, but meaning-equivalent to the linked article sentence regarding it.)
“To the Wild” as to other manufacturers. Steamos is now available as a preinstallable option to hardware vendors. Since steam machines disappeared, steamos was only available to Valve devices. There were gossips that this will happen, this is the official announcement.
Who could’ve thought that the thing Linux was worst for (gaming) would finally conquer Windows…
Upd: why down votes? Am I wrong? My first Desktop Linux was Ubuntu 6.04 in 2006. Back then I could only dream of what we’re witnessing nowadays.
I really thought it had dwindled for good after the failure of the original run of Steam Machines, feels great to be where we’re at now
