Here's one that I bought one of the first 24 bit color graphics cards made for $1400. They had dynamite autocad functionality as well. Still very much in biz. Maybe you should pick a different example. I just thought of STB and Intergraph as well......hummm Essentially none of the companies that specialized in $1000 graphics cards in 1988 are still around, and that was only 13 years ago. matrox.com History Matrox was founded in 1976 by two Quebec engineers, Branko Matic and Lorne Trottier. Over the last quarter of century, Matrox has set itself apart from the competition in many ways, such as being the first to integrate the PCI bus to its graphics cards and to introduce the 64-bit graphics processors. Our products have earned us over 900 prestigious industry awards conferred by the international press. To remain the leader in its field of activity, Matrox invests a substantial percentage of every sales dollar in research and development and uses the latest design tools and technologies available on the market.
