http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/02/25/ ... z41Wbah0wlThe game console “laptop” will run Windows 10 Home. The company claims to support PC games, flash games, Xbox games, Stream games, Emulator games (PS1, PSP, Arcade…) and more, but they don’t say if all of that is pre-installed, and it’s something you’d have to do yourself. There’s no video demo showing the capabilities of the device, but GPD is quite a well-known company for portable gaming console, so I assume the risks are limited.
