They did it right from start to the final release. It's so rare these days, I'm happy I have backed them on Kickstarter.

It's amazing how shitty Windows can be.

... and you've got loads of productive software on Linux after this install.

That's an easy one though ;) : Change every single option and you're fine.

Oh yeah but I forgot one thing though! The even more annoying online account!
If you want an offline one, you don't have the option to do it, you have to unplug physically the cable or disconnect the Wi-Fi!

Quoting: gabberInstalling Windows in 2022 on the Steamdeck is like installing Linux 10-15 years ago. Some parts work, some don't.
Also, exactly like installing Windows 10-15 years ago. Like 2 or 3 comments above you just said most people have no idea how difficult it can be to do a clean install of Windows especially with a retail disc and not an OEM disc. Especially 15-20 years ago!

Also, exactly like installing windows right now. You install it, then half the hardware doesn't work until you download and install drivers (and wifi is one of them, so you need to boot to Linux to get the wifi drivers first :P).

It's only Linux that once you install it, everything just works.

Bought! A bit annoying about the 3 limit downloading but it's not really a big issue so keep it safe.

No idea, but if you're not already aware it's always been completely free and always will be.

I mean this new version obviously. But I got my answer, they do have a itch.io page for it, so I'm fine and I'll be waiting for it there.

This is news to me. Could you provide a link? Maybe Liam could include it in the article.
