Fake Meerkat Best Practice

I have a meerkat and totally love it, been using it for like a year. Mine is Meer10 which as far as I can tell is based on Asus NUC 15 Pro.

But I got the tall case instead of slim and I didn't put anything in the 2.5" slot and so I started to wonder if it was a waste. My Meer10 was ordered with the maximum specs back when that cost $2000 rather than $4000 like it does now. Given how nifty it is for a powerful machine to be this small, I was interested to try a "slim" size. I ordered an actual Asus NUC 15 Pro from the asus website that has no RAM or HDD and put my ram and system76 popos install nVME chip in there, taken out of the Meer10 case for now until I get more ram / nVME for the new Asus NUC kit.

But I'm noticing that the actual Asus NUC 15 Pro (in the "slim" size box) still has Asus firmware on there so it says Asus when it boots instead of System76. I don't know if it would technically be lying to myself but is there a way to overwrite the firmware with Meer10 firmware so that when the BIOS is booting, the Asus motherboard will say System76 on it because I think system76 is cool and I don't care as much about accurately listing the manufacturer?

(I'm also curious if doing that would result in better firmware defaults for PopOS, etc)

What Kind of Mouse

Hello guys. In the Warcraft Direct stream from 2025, when Brad Chan, the Senior Manager of Warcraft RTS came onto the video stream, in multiple shots we see that he is using a wired computer mouse which is white on the top and black on the bottom. It appears the that anterior end of the mouse emits a yellow lite, while the front end of the mouse under his fingers emits a red light where the scroll wheel would be, between his fingers.

What make and model of computer mouse is this, which is black on the sides but white on the top, and emits these red and yellow lights simultaneously?
