The entirety of my career was founded on my ability to build stable network and systems to run Duke Nukem 3d at lan parties using 10base2 networks and Rendition Verite video cards with a side of 3dfx.
"Anyone have another BNC terminator? Oh, also the IPX network number we're using is 11111111."
Nobody could afford the Canopus, it was a room full of Sierra Screamin' 3D cards at best
A dedicated 3D card in addition to a good 2D card?! We'd dream, but didn't have that kind of cash.
Full disclosure: I was in my mid 20's and a factory worker in the later 90's, so I had a little more cash to afford my hobby. It still hurt though.
I had one with a weird pass through cable. Mainly played EF2000 on it.
