  Intel or AMD built-in graphics from roughly the last decade or more
  are expected to work. Extra screens are usually handled by Display Mapper
  and Input Mapper. Test USB, serial, and CAN store devices with your
  Android app on that model. Skip machines that need a separate NVIDIA
  graphics card.
