Indeed, it sounds a lot more professional and business-like. I would take "adapter" over "card" though. Just like we had the Color Graphics Adapter and the Enhanced Graphics Adapter, we can now have an Open Graphics Adapter (OGA). Then we get things like "Traversal Technology Open Graphics Adapter" "Traversal Technology OGA" "TT Open Graphics Adapter" "TT OGA" Also, "Traversal Technology OGA" could then be the Traversal Technology implementation of the OGA standard.
