That, my repeater, just felt it necessary to say the time. It is 1101 AM. But, yes, you can install SteamOS on there and then get all the benefits of a gaming console in a handheld form factor. So, that's a good way to go. And the ROG Ally X is the second most powerful one out there right now. The first most powerful one is the new Lenovo Legion Go. And that has a new Z2 Extreme processor in it, which also should be able to install SteamOS after like a couple of months from now because it just came out. They need to add support for it in SteamOS. And that has a big 8.9 inch touchscreen. So, the touchscreen is massive. Steam Deck has a 7 inch touchscreen, and that thing is heavy enough. But the new Lenovo Legion Go is just awesome. It has detachable controllers. You know, you can put one on the table and use it like a mouse. It's pretty sick. But, that thing is $1300 American. You could swallow that. It is the best thing on the go right now. But, that price tag is just nuts. I mean, you can pick up a Steam Deck right now for $400 American. And you know, granted it's the lower storage variant. The table that I've got is 256 gig. You know, get some micro SD cards and you're off to the races. That's what I did. I just have multiple micro SD cards and I install my games on those. And then I can switch them. And then I got one like for racing games, one for fighting games, one for RPGs, and one for my emulators. So, I can just pop in the SD card that has the games I want to play. And you know, the storage doesn't mean anything. But I'm curious Bill, if Janine kept that thing or what? Because Steam OS. The only games you can't run on it are like highly competitive online games that have an anti-cheat built into them. Because the anti-cheat software requires Windows. It's core level. It gets into your Windows system right down to the registry. I mean, it's core level. It's root access. A lot of people don't like it because it does give root access to your system and blah, blah, blah. So Steam Deck, because it runs Linux, can't run those games just because of that reason. Not because it's not powerful enough, but just because of that core level root level anti-cheat that doesn't work with Linux. Now they are trying to add support for it, so it doesn't mean that it's always not going to work. But right now some games don't work because of that. There are very few. It's just like massive online games. And they're making it that way so people can't cheat. Like you know, give yourself unlimited guns, unlimited health, and unlimited weapons, and then go into an online...
