In May, the true experiment will begin when gamers can pick between a $499.99 SteamOS version with 16GB / 512GB, a $599.99 Windows version with 16GB / 1TB

Is there any logical reason for the Windows version to have more storage? What is that about?

Storage is cheap, windows licensing is expensive, maybe Lenovo is trying to add value for the people who want to stick to Windows

Probably not, though. Hopefully it's repairable/upgradable.

Lenovo is trying to add value for the people who want to stick to Windows

Why would they do that?

No idea, hence my "probably not"

A deal with Microsoft, maybe?
