I wonder if Microsoft will start offering discount Windows licenses for gaming handhelds to push back against this, like how they used to offer dirt cheap licenses for netbooks when they were popular.
Even if it's free, the experience of using windows 11 as a portable gaming device is awful. Microsoft must create a gaming focused version of windows for this kind of devices. There are rumors of an "xbox OS", but who knows.
I wonder if Microsoft will tell Lenovo that the cost of Windows licenses for Lenovo's laptops and desktops will double or more.
I think OEMs get Windows for free if the screen is smaller than 9".
