Praise for Previous Editions: "...I've found this book useful when I've reached for it, and I've found myself reaching for it increasingly often, and that's the real test of any reference." - Michael Abrash, Dr. Dobb's Journal "A gold mine of information..."- PC Resource "You will find this a valuable reference source...It takes the place of detailed technical manuals that explain the theory of programming these devices, but which are not designed to teach the practice." - Online Today "This book provides essential tools urgently needed by graphics programmers. Now, the full potential of the Super VGAs can be realized." - Bo Ericsson, Cirrus Logic Board Member, VESA Standards Committee Programmer's Guide to the EGA, VGA and Super VGA Cards, Third Edition, is the definitive guide to industry graphics standards for personal computers.
