Hercules Graphics Card - Later Cards

Later Cards

The HGC standard was extended by two later cards:

  • The Hercules Graphics Card Plus (June 1986) allowed user-defined fonts to be used in 80×25 text mode.
  • The Hercules InColor Card (April 1987) included colour capabilities similar to the EGA, with 16 colours from a palette of 64. It retained the same two modes - 80×25 text and 720×348 graphics.

Famous quotes containing the word cards:

    “Out in Hollywood, where the streets are paved with Goldwyn, the word “sophisticate” means, very simply, “obscene.” A sophisticated story is a dirty story. Some of that meaning was wafted eastward and got itself mixed up into the present definition. So that a “sophisticate” means: one who dwells in a tower made of a DuPont substitute for ivory and holds a glass of flat champagne in one hand and an album of dirty post cards in the other.”
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    “Oft have I played at cards and dice,
    Because they were so enticing;
    But this is a sad and sorrowful day
    To see my apron rising.”
    —Unknown. The Rantin Laddie (l. 1–4)
