I mean sure, I had that thought like 20 years ago, when EVGA first became a major player in the GPU market.

- serf 5y agoI still catch "EGA" when I read it occasionally, even with lots of time with EVGA as a brand. I think it has more to do with impact and experience than how recent something is. Example: I spent a lot of time reading the phrases 'EGA' or 'VGA' in my life, much more so than I ever dealt with the brand 'EVGA'. When my eyes cruise over those letters together, something in my head always trips the concept 'EGA/VGA' first, even though I have known for years and year that EVGA is a brand and that EGA/VGA are now obsolete phrases. I don't know why that is , and maybe that's exactly the concept that parent was trying to get across : when you get older your brain tends to keep certain biases that were built during an earlier (now obsolete) era, even when they serve no real good purpose anymore -- likely because that concept was so exercised mentally at an earlier time. Now, if I were an actuary or accountant or business person working for EVGA and I had to write their name out 100+ times daily, i'd probably be singing a different tune.
