This is what I am afraid of when I go to other machines in the future. Its not always easy buying a machine (in our case we will be implementing this many times over time) and having to run to a vendor try the machine, send it back etc. Since the machines must be installed in machine panels we would like compact machines with no more than 2 PCi slots. I therefore hope the APIC method presents a possible solution.
