I haven't looked into the PCI based RS/6000 at work, or the PCI based Ultra-5. Its funny to see the PCI bus go so many places. I saw several books today on PCI. I may have to see if I can find an approachable one. Why couldn't we just have one or more unique interrupts per slot, like on the apple II. Thanks for the info.
