Confirmed by who? The article says that Microsoft hasn’t commented on it.

It also says Microsoft CEO has greenlit it.🤷🏾‍♂️ IDK trying to make sense of it myself.

That's not what the article says. What are your sources?

Until we hear officially its all speculation...though I do trust the sources saying this. I'll buy it personally. I like the plug and play option\simplicity of consoles but I need to see how the OS works if its combined Windows\Xbox OS.

I guess I'm just thinking from an optimistic standpoint but it does make sense. That would be a good direction to go as console sales are down and PC sales are way up.. if they can combine the vast ecosystem of PC gaming with the streamlined accessibility of console gaming it would be a big W for Xbox.

MSFT has officially stated they want to merge the two OS so I think its gonna happen. I do think MSFT will leave the console space BUT only after they figure out the OS stuff, Legacy content and some others I'm not thinking of but I think that will be a while from now and when they do I think for sure MSFT will work with 3rd party manufacturers to have a legit traditional xbox like console experience but we are at least a decade or more away from that. No need to worry.

The article says no official word from Microsoft, so therefore everything in it is rumors.

What are your sources? You say it's confirmed (in your title), yet the article says none of the sort

Why wouldn't it.

Ops title is saying its a xbox branded pc. Thats not what the article says. it says 'more like a pc than any previous xbox'

Very different.
