It supports like 1 intel ide controller chipset, etc. Basically its not that usable as a workstation or server platform for the x86 in its current form. The original build as i recall was designed for a specific ibm laptop. (i'm sure it inherited x86 support from its neXt Open Step roots) anyway.. you can goto developer.apple.com and get the link for the darwin project.. all the current info is there.
