The ps5 is much closer to a traditional PC than the PS3 which was a totally different design. There’s enough different with how the PS5 was designed that it isn’t a traditional PC but Linux is so versatile it can pretty much bridge that gap.
Which has me wondering if a PS5 is the cheapest desktop out there right now.
