What is the first graphics card you got?
You're viewing a single thread.
It was a shiny EGA card.
On an 8-bit ISA bus, with a whopping 64kB of VRAM. It could display an amazing 16 colours on one screen.
My friend who had a CGA card was so jelly with his four eye-soaring neon colours.
If we're talking accelerated graphics, I bought a voodoo 2 with 8mb of RAM which linked up to my ATI Mach 64 2d-card.
I remember when the EGAs came about. Damn, it was like stepping into the future. But I didn't have a color monitor so it didn't matter. I was probably more envious than your friend.
