Yours truly posted a "potential" duplicate question on Intel Microcode today. But there was "wiggle room" because it also referenced "Unknown:Unknown" which Ubuntu displays on the Additional Drivers screen.

With 2 close votes on file someone posted an answer that is better than all the answers on the dups (IMO). Although I hate to see my question closed I'd love to see the great answer migrated to the accepted original "unique" question. Is it possible to merge answers from duplicate questions into the original?

I like @Zanna comment above for "a better signpost" and I offered that olive branch to @Kerel today to change the question's title.

PS I just checked and there are now 3 votes to close.

PPS I think I figured out "Unknown:Unknown" means "Manufacturer:Model Name/Number"
