    Between ARM chips rapidly improving and x86 APUs really maturing I think portable gaming is in for a very interesting decade.

      I’m honestly placing my bets that Qualcomm Oryon (their next chips intended for PCs) will massively shake the handheld and laptop industry next year. It feels like nobody’s trying for ARM desktop chips outside of Apple and there’s huge potential there.

        That’s gonna depend a lot on Microsoft fixing windows on arm. Linux on arm exists but most people are “comfortable” (complacent) with windows

        Will be interesting if valve can make proton work on arm with similar results. Maybe that will be steam deck 3?
