Why does a similar device being mentioned to place a product's market appeal in context bother you?

There's nothing wrong with niche products. If you expect Xbox Ally to make PC handhelds mainstream, you're likely going to be disappointed.

I dont expect anything from this device. But your ignoring everything everyone is saying to you and going on some defensive path. 

Like what was said this is about the OS wars now. Console wars mean nothing to MS and yes this wont do much but its MS gate way to allow more devices or maybe even steamdeck users to install this version of windows. 

And it also doesnt matter if its selling against Normal Rog ally or any other handheld PC if them devices are also running windows MS wins in that case. ITs about stopping valve from getting a foothold into the OS market like what happend with IOS and Android with phones.

This is a growing market and thats the point your missing its only going to get bigger.

The entire PC handheld market is at a mere 6 million devices in the last three years.

There's no indication it's going to become mainstream in the foreseeable future.
