Talk:Lowest common denominator (computers)

Question on usage of "lowest common denominator"
I don't think this is a proper redirect. I was led here from the second paragraph of the Video Graphics Array page and I think this term refers more generally to just "a basic 'something' that is both widely supported and relatively not complex". For example, I once read somewhere that "Valve's Source engine is good at running on / targeting lowest common denominator hardware, making it accessible but not very visually advanced" (paraphrasing).

 * Any suggestions where else could we point this redirect? &mdash; Dsimic (talk &#124; contribs) 23:24, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Maybe the wiktionary page makes sense, if that's allowed? (Definition 2 on https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/lowest_common_denominator makes the most sense.) But actually it seems like we can just categorize this as an idiom of English, in which case it makes the most sense to just remove the hyperlink altogether. &mdash; Citizenofinfinity (talk) 08:55, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
