Machine translation, like
DeepL or
Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.

The ATI Wonder is a series of
video cards for the
IBM Personal Computer and
compatibles, introduced by
ATI Technologies in the mid to late 1980s.[1][2][3]These cards were unique at the time as they offered the end user a considerable amount of value by combining support for multiple graphics standards (and monitors) into a single card. The VGA Wonder series added additional value with the inclusion of a
bus mouse port,[4] which normally required the installation of a dedicated
Microsoft Mouse adapter.
The VGA Wonder series later merged with the
ATI Mach series of cards in 1990. The
ATI Graphics Ultra (
VRAM) and
ATI Graphics Vantage (
DRAM) cards both featured independent VGA WonderASICs in addition to their Mach88514 compatiblegraphics processor. The Graphics Ultra was later renamed the VGA Wonder GT. In 1992, their following
product line, the Mach32, integrated the VGA wonder core and coprocessor into a single
IC. At this point the VGA Wonder line was cancelled and replaced with a cost reduced DRAM based version of Mach32 known as the ATI Graphics Wonder.
Supports: All
CGA modes on both CGA/EGA and TTL monochrome monitors
Switching between CGA and Hercules compatibility is done via supplied utility (VSET.EXE) and doesn't require a reboot
Composite video output is available on an internal 3-pin connector (no support for colors, works only in the 40 × 25 text-mode or 320 × 200 graphics modes)
