> http://developer.intel.com/design/wrkstn/MS440gx/index.htm It has integrated 10/100 ethernet and 6 PCI slots -- all on a single PCI bus (I checked the PCI configuration space map to be sure). Intel must be doing something different from everyone else to get that many electrical loads on a single PCI bus. [I fully expected a PCI-PCI bridge, like on some Tyan and AMI motherboards.] It is either get the 440GX chipset, which has a single PCI bus, but supports 2 GB SDRAM, or get the 450NX, which supports 2-4 PCI busses, and uses 50ns EDO DIMMS, with 4-way interleaving.
