you can do this with any pc as long as none of the parts have issue in a linux distro. There's no need to go out of your way to use a piece of crap.
I used to browse hackaday for days on end when I was a kid but "here's a guy that installed a linux distro on hardware that he didn't expect to work and it worked" isn't the tier of article that drew me in back then, and is also a couple decades behind the curve for that kind of linux news.
Not with SteamOS you can't
What's the advantage of steamos over bazzite?
Nothing
It's arch...
Yeah but its downside right now is that it doesn't really support latest tech, since it is not based on latest Linux. Wish they would change that because I seriously consider SteamOS for my next gaming PC.
It's Arch frozen at particular point with packages you did not choose. I honestly don't think the distro base counts at that point.
If you want Arch there is ChimeraOS
SteamOS will support 32bit games in the future. (Fedora are ditching 32bit)
I don't think the proposal for fedora dropping 32 bit has gone through yet and given amount of folks saying don't I don't think the proposal will go through.
Wow, the misinformation is evolving quickly.
I think that’s still undecided, as yet
No they are not.
