Dual boot is still on the menu, too.

I’m not convinced that the ROG Ally is designed as well as the Steam Deck, and I’m less than impressed with Asus in recent years, but I do love open systems. This seems like a good move for Steam OS.

      Can’t be too much, considering Bazzite and Chimera already did it years ago. Maybe it doesn’t have the level of polish that Valve wants.

        Pulling people into their software ecosystem with a good user experience only helps them, after all.

      It’s not unexpected at all. Throwing in some drivers and whatnot is trivial compared to what Valve has already done with their OS. This is has always been part of their plan.

      Is your question about the task for the end user? If all works well, it might take as long as installing a new operating system on any other device. Maybe half an hour give or take.

      It should be a very smooth development and install since it’s a known set of hardware.
