If you could afford one! CGA/EGA were the best we had for a while. VGA/256 color was the stuff dreams were made of (and boy were we excited to finally get a computer that had it!!!)

CGA? EGA? Well look at you, Mr. Fancy Rich Guy Computer user.

I lived the MDA life until waaaaaaaaaaaaay into the SVGA era lol.

Damn, lol! We always laughed about "Hercules", i now see even that was superior to MDA! TIL we had it "good" with CGA as kids 😅

Hercules was MDA if MDA wasn't garbage (thanks IBM!).

But yeah went from a XT with MDA to a Pentium system.

Real caveman-discovers-fire moment.
