would be cheaper to buy the steam version and put your own windows license on it.

Hey, I have a SteamDeck and it's running SteamOS. I'm just saying that IF you wanted windows, it wouldn't make sense to buy it as a Windows device.

Hmm okkk lol

But yea, that's been true for decades now, if you could find an OEM that sold the model you wanted sans windows AND offered a discount for it it'd be about 100 bucks cheaper
