What non-monotheistic hardware does Plan 9 support these days?
Starting with VGA hardware, let's cull the obsolete from the list.

If you run any of the below-listed VGA gear under a current (4ed+)
release, send an aux/vga dump (to me).

Some weeks from now I will collapse and update the wiki list.
