gollark: The display can rotate 180 degrees because of a neat hinge mechanism, but it also has a TN panel which is barely viewable 45 degrees off the right angle.
gollark: There are access panels on the bottom for the RAM and disk, suggesting they wanted to make it easy to maintain, but it also has some bizarre plastic clip things which are very annoying to remove.
gollark: Only one DIMM is soldered, there's an empty slot, it is very weird.
