At which there should have been NO PCI, it should have gone EISA -> 
EISA2, with speedup's on the EISA2 bus like they were with PCI. This way 
we could still use all of our previous ISA and EISA cards in the EISA2 
slots, plus not have to worry about lame slot combinations at the such. I 
seriously think they did this in order to force everyone to buy new cards 
as this new technology emerged.
