Yes, Eisa, Vesa and MCA whose sun rose and set so rapidly. I had EISA and VESA bus boxes, but soon left them. I had 7 build your own box retail ops in the 80's, so it came in and went out, and as soon as it faded I stopped buying. Never bought MCA - terrible sticker shock, my student base would not go for it. I think that IBM ran with floppy config and EISA followed like a puppy dog and it died a quick death.
