RE: 3.3V PCI PC's for Test

[Brooks Lame <Brooks_Lame@mcg.mot.com>]

How about using a P2P bridge eval board in a system that supports PME#?
Some bridges (at least the DEC ones) provide for differing voltage
levels on either side and I would imagine that this would be a
configuration option on the bridge eval board.  The newer revs of DEC's
bridges also support PME#.
