An [Acronym] for E__x__tended __G__raphics __A__rray.
The graphics hardware standard intended by [IBM] to supersede [VGA]. It adds resolutions up to 1024x768 pixels in 256 colours (4:3 aspect ratio). However, it was built for the [MCA] bus which never caught on, and required special drivers to use as more than a plain [VGA] card, so it never caught. The market was won over by a slew of incompatible [SVGA] designs instead.
