Thank Mike and CS for making that.

  Neat but does the 1U have a real 64 bit PCI data bus, not the usual 32-bit
one, and does the 29160 plug into a 64-bit, extra-long, pci-slot proving that
it's a 64-bit setup?  I've tried shopping for 64-bit mainboards, and the
market is a bit thin these days.  It's pretty sad seeing my flashy new 29160
dangling it's connectors over the edge of a 32-bit pci slot :-)
