Some of that reflects poorly on the hardware too. With a few exceptions, they've shipped a mouse-based operating system on hardware that lacks a good way to control a mouse. If they know that the hardware is running windows ahead of time, wouldn't it make sense to give users some good options for using windows?

There's also more obvious hardware issues like the ROG Ally burning up MicroSD cards.
