Browsing for some hardware to assemble a new system, nn AMD MSI motherboard caught my attention.

Checking the motherboard compatibility list got me really miffed, as updating BIOS is apparently impossible if not on Window$ and all supported CPUs with integrated graphics require later updates.

MSI was the first brand where I ran Linux, on a Megabook. It installed smoothly, ran flawlessly and even improved battery life and hardware output above what the competition achieved.

Looks like those times are past.
