Not quite a Vewlix, but the next best thing!

The desk is a Qanba Arcade 2009, with the lever swapped out for a Seimitsu LS-56; these desks are readily available for around $800, but I was lucky enough to get it on steep discount. I added a VESA arm and an open box monitor from Micro Center, and put in a Brook Universal board for PS5/Switch support.

I got a Exa last week (I know I know, kinda drank the kool-aid on this one), so I also installed a JVS adapter and a marquee (read: I wrapped a promo marquee around some cardboard and taped that to the monitor).

PSA: If your Steam downloads instantly fail with a fresh install, and you had configured the client to use external storage before downloading anything, try disabling external storage in the GameNative settings and installing your first game to internal storage

See title. After I installed a game to internal storage, I was able to re-enable external storage and download more games without issue. I was having trouble figuring out the problem initially, and couldn't find anything mentioning this trick here so I figured I would post this in case it helps anyone else.
