Sorry. My bad. I forget about the lingo sometimes.
post or rather POST. Power On Self Test. The video bios people call
a card that has been initialized by the BIOS 'posted.' Probally
because it happens during the BIOS which used to be much more of a
POST. Nowdays BIOS is a whole different beast but the 'posting' term
remained.
posted = initialized.
