    // Windows:
    //      model() returns an empty string
    //      name() returns something like \\.\DISPLAY1
    //
    // Linux:
    //      model() returns a name, like "LG Ultra HD/525000"
    //      name() returns the output's name, like "HDMI1"

    // So we try to assemble something unique and readable from all the possibilities.
