So they work well in 32-bit PCI slots as well? I thought (for no other than visual reasons) that they required a 64-bit slot. We were thinking about byuing one for our ISP1100 (somewhat old, but stable), which has no 64-bit PCI slot. Do you know if there is anything special to think about or will it work with just about any 32-bit PCI slot?

I've rarely had problems using a 64-bit card in a 32-bit slot, as long as the card would physically fit without shorting the exposed card edge. The one time I did have a problem, I think it was a problem between the card, the motherboard and OpenBSD; the card worked fine in another 32-bit PCI system under some kind of Linux, as well as Windows.
