maybe it's just leftover urges from being a toddler putting round pegs in square holes but every time I see a video card like this on ebay I want to buy it and also some RAM chips to fill it with

when I win the lottery I'm gonna buy all of these and a bunch of RAM chips, put them together, and then relist them right back onto ebay
I have a dream that one day all the super VGA cards on ebay will have full ram expansion sockets
that's a nice VLB video card you have there
be a real shame if someone were to UPGRADE ITS RAM
huh, I don't think I've ever seen RAM in that package
QFP DRAMs?
this one doesn't even have sockets.
you have to solder more RAM onto it
A CHALLENGE!
this one has ram slots on a daughtercard!
I think because it's a dual-output card... I think they made it dual-output by basically putting two cards on one card
remember when matrox made those AGP cards which had a laptop RAM slot on them so you could just use standard RAM in them?
beautiful
all slots filled
my skin is clear
the future is bright
all rams socketed
all rams filled
warm up the soldering iron, we got another one missing sockets
if you fill the ram sockets on your VGA cards, you may not be thanked much in this life, but you will be rewarded when you go to meet your maker.
as jesus said, in the red text, blessed are those who add more RAM to their supervga cards
apparently ATI also did that laptop-ram thing, according to this picture from an ebay seller who doesn't understand white balance
this EISA card has no obvious RAM sockets, but there are some suspicious pin headers near the ram chips.
so I bet you can upgrade this, you just need some stupid proprietary daughterboard
this guy managed to take 3 pictures of the same card, none of which are remotely in focus
matrox did that same daughterboard RAM thing, as you can see here, in some kinda blurry photos:
maybe I should take this into account when I build my MDA clone
design it for upgrading to more RAM
yeah, the MDA only has 4K of ram and can only use 4K of ram, but what if... it had more?
sure it only has a 80x25 character text screen, but if you had more RAM you could have more pages!
it reserves 32k of address space anyway, so you could have 8 pages of text screens
why not add a DDR3 slot?
"yeah, this is my upgraded Foonetronics Monochrome Display Adapter. I put in that 16gb DDR3 stick, and now I've got FOUR MILLION PAGES of text available!"
small brain: single buffering
big brain: double buffering
cosmic brain: triple buffering
multiversal infinite brain: four milluple buffering
I have no idea if that's remotely close to the english tuple name for a million and I don't really care. I don't think anyone has seriously tried to figure it out

"I really want to break into Product Management"

make products.

"If only someone would tell me how I can get a startup to notice me."

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
