Hot take: The Snapdragon X PC's would have sold far better if they were pitched as the PC Apple Silicon counterpart instead of the all in on AI marketing. Better battery life with top performance and touting compatibility should have been a clear slam dunk. For strictly AI, there's not much of a compelling reason to buy it over a Ryzen. Microsoft entirely and completely failed to read the room. Qualcomm OEM vendors should tout #Bazzite gaming compatibility instead.

@vwbusguy ooh, sorry to butt in, but could you point me at the aarch64 deployment instructions for Bazzite?
I definitely have a ARM SBC gaming device intentions, and it'd be nice to avoid going the manual-install-of-QEMU route for a change.
