  You missed the point.
  I want a PCI bus with multiple 66/64 slots that can talk to each other,
and I want to bridge it to a host via CardBus. The Host is used for code
download and configuration only (GUI).

  {if you aren't the only one that is really annoyed by these Out-of-the
Office crap that you get, contact me}
