More expensive but you can do a whole lot more on a computer than just video gaming, which is where you make your value back, because you're going to need a computer regardless. So think of the cost as only what you would pay extra to get the high performance computer vs a normal one. For example, my laptop was $1,000. To get the same laptop but with lower performance was like $700 so I really only paid $300 over what I would have anyways.
You also have the desktop option, which is very cheap. You can also simply take parts out and upgrade them, as needed, and not replace the whole machine.
That's my thing though. To enter into PC gaming takes the initial upfront cost. That hurts the market. If I were able to actually handle setting up a business financially and it had to be in the PC area? I would probably start out with customizable base platform PC that is about $400 or so. Able to play on TV or monitor and is upgradable as hell. Simplicity and reliability would be the goal though. Less tinkering involved. I know a lot of the gamers who love that aspect. I hate it. I want it to work every time. And when it doesn't? I want it to be cheap and fixable quick.
I had one issue with my PS4 and I sent it back and was given a new one. Problem solved.
