    I’m not sure if you ignored both but:

    As the original commenter said, pricing of next gen consoles will be $1000+. Which puts pricing into PC ballpark.

    I said there are system integrators, always have been, to buy a prebuilt system.

    So “too much” both fiscally and laboriously aren’t true anymore.

    And I mentioned it, but choosing Bazzite is a locked down system. Installing it takes about 10 clicks of your mouse.

    They could ask a friend. Or google it.

    How braindead do you think people are? If they talk to anyone they’ll easily come across these ideas. Linux just jumped from 4% desktop usage to over 10%. So people aren’t completely gone. Enough friction and they’ll look for alternatives.

    If they play sports games I can’t help them though. They’re already on life support.

        Me too.

        I learned if things affect their wallet/affects them personally, they’ll learn.

        Good ol republican ideology.

            Did you ever write their password on the inside of their case cause they kept bringing it in for password resets?

            I know we could’ve kept making money off of him but that would just be cruel.
