Was it confirmed that you can install Windows? The video said software, I don’t remember that you could install any operating system. It comes with an Arch Linux.

If it can run the Epic Games Launcher, too, I would use the Steam Machine for gaming, some cheap laptop with Windows 11 for my tax software and everything else that forces you to use Windows, and a Mac for work.
Well, my kind of humor.
I just realized that “another operating system” can mean so many things that aren’t Windows.
We need to be patient and wait until some crazy people defile their Steam Machine for Internet points.
