Hmm... lets see

On my 286/386 PC's, the same Hercules Mono/CGA combo 16-bit ISA card. Those were the days of PHIX.EXE and VGA emulators. Ah..... :)

Went from that to a Cirrus Logic CL5434 Vesa local bus vga card (2Mb)

From that...went to a PCI S3 Virge 4Mb Card with 3D 'Decelerator'

From that...Asus V3800 TNT2 32Mb....man...now THAT was a card.

When that broke (or, at least, when I fried it on the BBQ), went down to a ATi Rage Pro 8Mb (couldn't afford to replace the TNT2)

Replaced that eventually with a Radeon 8500. I skipped over whole generations of Geforces and Radeons 1's and 2's

The Radeon 8500 served me well for a long time, until I replaced it with my current X800 Pro.
