It's about 2 1/2 times bigger than a PCI slot, as i
originally
mentioned. It
looks a lot like an ISA port (ISA style connectors and
black casing),
but is
a lot bigger. There's only one connector on the
mobo, which does support
the
riser card theory. Luckily, the system has onboard
video, serial and
parallel ports, etc. so it won't be so bad.
Thats the case. Most pizza boxen that are under 5" high have to mount the
card
horizontally so the do the 120 pin connector and riser with the cards
plugging into
the riser sideways.
I have a AT&T P100, Dell 486DX and Dell 386sx/16 all using risers like
that.
