        Good call. I still have mine from 2022. I payed the 5 bucks to pre-order on the first day. I really just thought I was at least putting money into Linux and showing interest. I wasn’t expecting much but, shocked at how good the Steam Deck actually was. Valve really stepped up and turned a decent handheld (that I would still be using today in the state it was released in), into really well done polished device. The LCD is even getting Wake-on-BT in the next Steam OS 3.7 release. I tried the preview, it works great. In a couple years when the Steam Deck 2 releases, if I’m still playing older titles, I’ll probably just wait for the first sale to buy. You can’t go wrong with a Steam Deck. It’ll change the way you play games.

      I got one recently. Works way better than I expected, and one got years of Linux gaming under my belt already.
