Then you are in the same price range as PS5 but freedom of PC.

What freedom?

If they are buying premade it likely comes with Windows

Nothing stops you from installing arch Linux btw

And then you'd need to learn the basics of Linux and solving issues related to gaming, that does not bother me (I like to hack stuff and set up Chinese handhelds lol) but it bothers my PC gaming Windows friends.
