We need technically-experienced people, because we have old and weird
hardware that people throw away because it's old, and too much of a pain
in the arse to get to work. If you want to adapt your PGI to the old
hardware that is so common, feel free. Desktop Penguin has detection
routines for almost all of the hardware that comes through Computerbank.

Oh, and did I mention that having a little triangular pointer on the
screen doesn't necessarily make anything easier?
