Headland isn't on the list, got a packard bell machine that has that for a gpu. Raytheon is another.

Headland is on mine to do list. But never heard about Raytheon - any better info or list of cards? Wiki says that they do military stuff.

They did some stuff but Intel bought out their graphics division and the work that Raytheon did resulted in the i740.

It wasn't Raytheon, it was Lockheed Martin.

That would be REAL3D.

According to wiki no real chip for pc was ever made, so no space for real3d 😁

[EOCF] Tim/Timber/etc. had a (prototype? limited release?) card if I recall correctly.

[EDIT] Yep

I miss that guy's website sorely.

Then you need to look up the wiki entry for i740 to see the history of the chip. Intel did not develop it, they bought it.

for such large .png, how about using Ken Silverman's PNGOUT ?
The command line version is free.
http://advsys.net/ken/utils.htm

Ralf Brown's Interrupt list also have some vintage graphics cards mentioned in its INT 10h sections.

Ken Silvermans thing is horribly slow.
This one is much much better: http://psydk.org/PngOptimizer.php

Well it doesn't change fact that 740 was made and sold under intel mark. And real3d seems to had only prototypes, which never made it to market (and this posted one looks very different from i740). Its same as Bitboys - maybe add them as last companys with all products grayed out as never released - so we will have info about real bad luckers companys.

A bit off topic, but, it didn't work because you have too much anti alising in that file. But trust me, this program is effective from 30% to 50% on images.
I use it to reduce the size of my Adobe Illustrator PNG out puts.

for PNG optimizations PNGCRUSH works well enough for me. And by the way, this image is still fully readable when scaled down to 50%.

Back on topic - I see no obvious early '80s stuff like Hercules or Plantronics? Could send them in if I find the time, though I guess the info should be readily available :)

Continued off-topic: 3921362 bytes on optipng default settings.
http://optipng.sourceforge.net
(Later, I'll try optipng -o7 and pngout 😀 )

[EDIT] PNGOUT cannot compress further.

[EDIT2] optipng -07 cannot compress further. 😁

Great list. Suggested additions:

• Intergraph (RealiZm series)
  Dynamic Pictures (Oxygen Series)
  AccelGraphics (AG300/AG500)
  Artist Graphics (3GA/GPX)
  Early Matrox (pre 94 Impression, MGA 108, HiPerPlus)
  SGI (if you want only PC graphics, then the two are IrisVision and Cobalt)
  Cornerstone ImageAccel

What program did you use to create this image?

Well this is list of graphic chips makers, not graphic cards. And don't know any chip made by hercules. Well dunno about hercules color card (never seen any photo), but 1st models were based on motorola 6845 or clones and later they were using also other makers chips (intel for example).

btw never heard about Plantronics (dont do they headphones now?).

And any info is ofc welcome. There's not yet plenty of small companys. It take usually a lot of time to add them, since searching any info is hard.

Program is VUE - free one - http://vue.tufts.edu/

Nice list but will be hard searching for info, since all of em are profi cards. And they usually dont release name of used chipsets - i guess i have to use name of cards....
BTW don't know any info source about early matrox - you do? As far as i know matrox were using chips from other chips makers - s3 in early 90's for example. And its hard to find out even card list.

I'm pretty sure matrox made their own chips... Matrox has been around since the s-100 days http://www.s100computers.com/Hardware%20Folde … T256/ALT256.htm

if you look, that board is dated 1977.
