[Ham-Computers] PCI-ISA conversion?

OK.  My mind isn't going :-) :-)  Like I said, it was quite a while
back.

I just did some poking around, since my curiosity was up and found
this:

     http://www.douglas.com/hardware/pcbs/pc104/

This place has a couple of cards which will allow you to connect an
ISA card (and two PCI cards) to a single PCI slot.  (Take the
BX-DE-104+-163-265 card and connect it to the 6-DE-65/104 card.)

Although I just thought of an additional wrinkle.  Even if you get
an ISA to PCI adapter, you will need to get a special driver to make
it all work.  The normal (for ISA) just won't work.  Sigh.

I'll ponder some more.
