"Memory Plus" Nubus video?
Posted by: beachycove on 2009-01-22 16:47:18
Has anyone heard of a "Memory Plus" nubus video card? I can find no reference to any such brand/manufacturer, and cannot remember these cards from back in the days that I followed these things in the magazines and so forth. However, there is such a card on eBay, dated 1995 and (allowing for an incorrect listing), capable of 24-bit colour. It's a 7" card.

I might just buy one if I could identify drivers, etc.

Never heard of it, could be he is just reading whatever is printed on the board. He has quite a few Nubus cards but the prices are crazy.

I sent him a question, asking for a better photo so that I could identify the card, and received a link back to this: http://www.mail-archive.com/compact.macs@mail.maclaunch.com/msg01543.html .

Explique-moi.

So its a pds card not nubus.

I doubt it: a) no SE/30 pds has a video port in a nubus-like arrangement (assuming the photo is of the card), and B) it supposedly has a datemark of 1995 on it.

However, I suppose that if "Memory Plus" manufactured SE/30 cards c. 1990, they might have manufactured nubus cards c. 1995.
