Yeah that's my exact issue. I'm not interested in gaming on the things built in chipset. Were getting to the point where resolutions are high enough that these can become viable monitor replacements.
Imagine the apple vision with the openness of a standard PC. Snapdragon based ARM chips get in the way of that. No standard firmware like UEFI/BIOS, no mainline GPU drivers, and most devices built on them give no way to change is signing keys like secure boot on PC or pixel devices.
They're going to have to do a lot of work to maintain the openness a PC gives from the get-go. Is it possible? Sure. I just don't have much hope anymore.
