My cheap HP (G62) had the video die in low res. I haven't fixed it, just wait for the hi res screen to boot. If I have to change distros (I usually run Mint) I plug it in an external monitor so I can see the boot screen.

Bottom line: two companies to avoid are Packard and Hewlett.

Redshift works OK on my Linux desktop.

Actually, there's a lot of "Belgian style" beers marketed to Americans that consist of lager with clove extract and orange oil thrown in. Uh uh.
If you want to avoid a trip to Flanders, the best you can do in this country is the Ommegang brewery in Cooperstown, NY.

Enjoy your Bud Lite.

I'm 67, and I'm neither. I also have some electronic gear that's almost as old as I am, and also still works.

I'll be able to buy a PC with no more Windoze tax!

"Insert coin here to activate Windows for 30 minutes" Hahahahahahahahahahahh !!!!! (That was a penguin laughing)
