  1. What does BP_PCX16_C mean? Should that just say "Computer" or something?

  2. What the hell are nya_lem and mack_35fd?

  3. Why is the stuff under Hardware a different font size than the stuff under Status?

  4. Why does the Eject button turn into a Close button when the cursor hovers over it?

  5. Why is the Close button smaller than the other buttons?

The hardware specs are listed @ https://github.com/techcompliant/TC-Specs

The proper change here is to fix what you outlined: Font issue Show friendly name of hardware, not ID Make hardware clickable to view it's specification

BP_PCX16_C is the class name, where it should be the friendly -> "PCX16 Terminal" PCX16 is the name of the frame/chassis being used.

And the Select Floppy window has an oval for a close button, not a circle. It's horizontally squished.

And you didn't mention the Eject button turning into a Close button when you hover over it. It's not even entirely just a Close button, the eject button is still there. They just get mixed together slightly to the side of eachother.

EDIT: If you mouse over the left part, it flickers quickly between Eject and Close. If you mouse over the right side of the eject button, it just turns entirely into a close button.

Thanks for the additional info! Will give the UI a proper fixing pass and include these changes in the next patch or two.

Edited previous comment because I'm typing issue reports faster than I'm discovering info about the bugs.

Also I'm just going to shy away from investigating computer bugs because I'm not a Comp Sci major and I understood nothing in TC-Specs
