It would flip onto it's side the first time you tried to turn at all.

Absolutely, I enjoyed both for what they were, silly fantasy/adventure movies.

Probably, when did the original Superman even come? 40's? Records were pretty lazy back then, especially in rural America.

I don't even know if being "illegal" was a thing, we might have still had an open immigration policy.

They're so motivated, they find problems that don't exist!

So I reloaded my 12 yr old laptop dual boot with win10 and Linux.

Win 10 no problems also installed World of Warcraft and copied over the mod folders from my main PC.

Linux- 2 distros failed to install, a third wouldn't create a usb bootable iso. Finally got Bazzite with Gnome to install and started to play around. Used the built "lutris"? to instal battlenet and then installed wow using the defaults. YaY! it seemed to work fine!

But... Trying copy over my mods from a FAT32 usb stick (linux reconginze the stick fine, but gives no indication that its a USB stick?)... COPY/PASTE doesn't work! wth. You have to use "Copy..to" ok learning curve on my part.

Now the real issue, using the defaults it installed WoW in "Os install" folder under games, took me a minute to find no problem. "Destination read only" WTF.... How do I get around this and why would Linux install a game in a read only directory???

 

I'm thinking about putting Linux on my MSI laptop.

First how does Linux handle 2 video cards. CPU Intel and a discrete Nvidia 970...

Can Linux work the light up keyboard? ( I game in the dark lot.

External monitor hooked to the display port?

Last what would be the best noob friendly distro to use. Haven't played with Linux in 10 years and really don't have time to tinker now

 

Is there anyway to "upscale" old 640-480 games?

Right now you either get a tiny box you can't see or a pixelated mess.
