I saw so much of this. The same thing with Intel marketing dollars over AMD. Or Nvidia marketing dollars over AMD. Or Microsoft over Linux offerings for laptops. I’m surprised it’s not public knowledge at this point.

Lenovo likely doesnt want to blatently get on Microsofts bad side. Basically skirting business to business relationships.
for example if down the line the xbox full screen mode is decent, you probably dont want to be glazing your opposition.

That sounds like an abusive relationship.

welcome to the tech world, where trying to cozy with competition can lead to blacklists.
take for example, there are oems who used to make Nvidia gpus, tried to do a side AMD hustle and got blacklisted by Nvidia (e.g XFX), and Nvidia has not so many good relationships with some of its old partners (EVGA, Apple)

welcome to what happens when a single corporate entity owns a monopoly on a sector. it turns into extortion rackets so fast because everything is secretly just mob shit in the background
