    Maybe? You probably already can install Linux, but the compatibility would probably need some elbow grease, and some level of modding your system.

      Sounds beyond me already. 😆

      I’m hoping someone comes up with a tutorial one day. Why not turn old Xbox Ones in to underpowered Steam Machines, amirite?

        Well that’s why so many people were keen for the PS3 supporting Linux way back when, but they had to remove it because people such as the US military were using them for cheap computing clusters.

        You can either have an open system that lets you do what you want, or a cheap system subsidised by the company selling it, but you can’t have both unfortunately.
