But it has what PCs crave.
It's a matter of price vs convenience. If they keep it under some decent price limit and everything is plug and play, fine. Otherwise you're better with a custom build.
If you ever want to see the concept of "survivor bias" in action, watch PC Master Race dudes try and explain why you don't need a Steam Box.
I mean you're not wrong. It's basically just a prebuilt pc. I'm kinda hoping that they'll have put some thought into using it as a console though. The ability to wake it with the controller for example. That's something I've never gotten properly working on PC
Pretty sure my stream deck can do this, find issue why they wouldn't also include that feature since they have developed it already, but weird things can happen getting from design to prodiction.
