My current quest is to obtain one of each of the following:
IBM Monochrome Display Adapter*
IBM Color/Graphics Adapter*
Hercules Graphics Card*
IBM Enhanced Graphics Adapter w/256KB RAM Expansion*
IBM PS/2 Display Adapter*
Also, for sound hardware I want the following:
Adlib Sound Card*
Roland LAPC-I*
IBM Music Feature Card*
Creative Labs Game Blaster
Creative Labs Sound Blaster 1.0-1.5*
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Pro 1.0*
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Pro 2.0*
Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 MCD ASP*
Creative Labs Sound Blaster AWE32 non-PnP*
Covox Speech Thing or Disney Sound Source*
Gravis Ultrasound Ace w/1MB RAM*
Roland MPU-401 + MIF-IPC-A*
Roland MPU-401AT*
Roland SCB-55*
Yamaha DB50XG*
Roland CM-64*
The items asterisked are items I have.
The idea is not to put all these cards into one system, that wouldn't work. The idea is that if a game demands a true Adlib card, for example, I will have a true Adlib card to make it work, although by and large any of the Sound Blasters will work better. I expect to use the CGA card solely for games that take advantage of it composite color capabilities. I believe I can also use this particular VGA card with a Hercules card.
