       @gamingonlinux I'd say that price is a fair reflection of the hardware unfortunately.Broken down into components it's quite reasonable. Personally though if I was going to spend that much I'd still build my own machine though.But for those unable or unwilling to build from components...might be worth it?

       @gamingonlinux I expected much worse pricing.Just a tad more then $1000, is under current circumstances very aggressive pricing.I wouldn't get one, I already have a powerful gaming PC, but I'm positively surprised by the price.

       @bacteriostat and of course it won't be coming to our neck of the woods We are like the Red Skull, guiding others to treasure we cannot possess. From LEGO, to Framework laptops to Nintendo handhelds to SteamDeck and now this ;)

       @gamingonlinux I think it's totally fine given the current circumstances. Funnily, i just hooked up my Steam Deck (LCD) in a dock to the TV. Combined it with an Xbox One controller, works pretty good. Currently running Minecraft in Game Mode, nice and fluffy 60 fps.Only thing that doesn´t work is sleep mode with connected controller: It instantly wakes up again :(
