The former was the A2024, which combined a series of fields into a 4
quadrant display for high resolution stuff... the latter was a TMS-based
gfx. accell. card that was pretty interesting back then (IMHO)-
certainly for a "home computer".

I searched for Richard A. Miner, the guy at U-Lowell who
worked on that card. He's now a PhD, Vice President of
OrangeImagineering, part of Orange Plc. No e-mail found,
though. Neither the card nor Rich look anything like
that singer from Minnesota.
Many sections of my brain containing Amiga memories are
covered in dust and dirt. I remember one mono-ish graphics
card that required a special (interlacing?) monitor, and
then the Lowell card, but I don't remember if they were the same.
