re why vesa local bus in a previous article guyd austin ibm com guy dawson says something to bear in mind is what the v in vlb stands for v for video the origional intention of the bus was to speed up the bus so that large memory to memory transfers would be faster this is espically useful in transfering data from main memory to video memory well not to be picky but the v in vlb stands for vesa while the v in vesa stands for video saying the v in vlb stands for video is not entirely correct
