The stuff I'm remembering is from the 1990-1995
period, so it would be
"apopros" vis-a-vis the 10 year rule, which isn't a rule, really more
a rule of thumb or a guideline, well not really a guideline, more like
a hint, well not really a hint, but whatever Jay says it is...
The "really off-topic" stuff I'm talking about are the current cards-
those Suns are outside of my budget. Creator was mid to late '90s and
was the first Sun 24-bit midrange option (I don't think there were any
8-bit UPA graphics options).
GP2 was, I think (don't have one) a single 9-U VME board that attached
to the CG9 via a private bus on the P2 or P3.
CG13 looks to be unaccelerated based on anecdotal evidence.
Does anyone know if the S24 (SS5 AFX framebuffer) was accelerated?
This doesn't cover 3rd party products, either
