Long story short. I’ve worked in IT since 1998, my first computer was a PC-XT, and before that I had a thing that only Brazil had (HotBit from Sharp).
I had to achieve an equilibrium between work and home.
So, now I work on a MacBook Pro and I ssh to the servers I need (I’m a - mostly - Oracle DBA). At home I have an XBox Series X to play games.
I don’t want a PC. I want things simple.
I’ll probably buy the SteamDeck (or the GabeCube) and this VR.
What is a PC for you, though? Steam Frame is a full on computer running Linux, as well as Steam Deck. Nothing prevents you from running basically anything on them. But the same could be said about your MacBook that you already own.
The MacBook is not “mine”, exactly, it’s from my boss. What I’m saying is that I don’t want to go through the hassle of assembling and maintaining a PC. That’s why I bought the XBox (and because of Halo, that’s why I didn’t buy the PS).
I see, by PC you mean you don’t want a traditional ‘tower’ PC, which is perfectly reasonable. I personally consider anything within the umbrella of “PC gaming” to be a PC, including laptops (even Macbooks).
