Anyone tried using an Xbox-Series S as a PC?  Looking at getting one of the kids a PC, but with video cards still stupid $...  Looks like the series S can now run Edge and also MS Office in it, meaning it would probably do all he would need and more. Price would be very reasonable, especially coupled with GamePass Ultimate which it looks like I can share on my PC...

With the new web browser being Edge Chromium it can access web apps etc. as any native browser on a standard Windows PC so it can do all that, what it obviously can't do is use apps that are not available on it or as web apps as its not a Windows PC.   My Series X can do a lot of stuff I use my actual PC for and sometimes I don't even bother switching over the inputs!
