I like the timeline and some of the graphics card boxes are both funny and interesting to look at.

I used to have a Diamond Viper card way back when. Wonder what ever happened to that card. Think this is the one I had:

Used to have that GeForce 4 Ti 4600 too.

Talk about once upon a time ^_^. Maybe I should send this guy my old trident card that barely supported 3d. Never really did like the dumb thing .

They forgot to list the retail prices for those years! Because then I could remember those hours spent thinking, "Let's see, that's two lawns cut today, I just have to cut 27 more lawns to get that video card!"

Also, needs more artwork pics of the original retail boxes. As a kid, half the fun was pouring over the box and in-game screen shots. But if you're not a a true geek (AKA computer nerd) you wouldn't understand!

Hi, thanks for posting it here.

It's just my hobby site, I'm continually working on it.

As for the boxes, I would like to keep the pictures on there of actual boxes that I own, also I don't collect all boxes, that would be impossible, and also I don't have the space for it. I've got more boxes then those listed, but I chose to stick to the rare ones.

I will try and update it with more info, and also prices of the cards, a lot of this info is very difficult to find though, especially the early years.
