Look around on the card for a trade name like Vectrix or a device name in the
silkscreen, e.g. PePe. At one time Calcomp used the Vectrix PePe board as a
drawing tool to support its line of plotters.

Subject: Calcomp Drawing Card
I just found in the original box, minus software and
documentation a
"Calcomp Drawing Card". It is a full length ISA card with an attached
daughter card that can display 16 or 256 colors of a palette of 4 million
colors at 1024 X 768. The ROM chips on the board are all labeled 1987. It
says it works with IBM PC AT.
Anybody know anything more? I tried a google and altavista search but only
hit was for a grayscale version.
