That's what I was trying to get at earlier ...

As an example, I have an ATI Radeon 7000ME that will work in a 66 or  
33MHz slot, like in my PowerPC 8500 (33MHz slots) and in my PCI  
Graphics (Yikes! ... Yosemite's 1st Cousin) ... it will work in  
either the 33 or 66 slots. I have it in the 66MHz one working fine.

What does a 33MHz PCI card do in a 66MHz slot? Not fit? If it does,  
does it ruin the card?
