Re: Motherboard with 6 PCI Slots

The difference to what we have now ...

2) 4 Sata instead of only 2
3) Room to add PCI tuner #4 and #5
4) Room to add PCI Video Security DVR Card (4 cams)
5) Intel Processor upgrade from existing Athalon 64 3200+
6) FSB and Memory Speed upgrade
7) Increased LAN capacity for BTVlink
8) 8 USB eliminates external Hub
9) 8 channel audio instead of 5 channel
10) New 2007 motherboard that will be produced for another 5 years minimum
11) Non-Commercial, Industrial rugged design.
