With such a card I can construct a minimal, full system

386sx I have using only one expansion slot, which is a necessity.
I came across a couple of small systems made by SIIG (who makes expansion
cards now) that are the size of a small shoebox (not my shoes; Rachel's)
and are complete systems with I/O, Video, FDC, HDC, etc. Room for a single
3.5" floppy and one 3.5"hd. One 16-bit expansion slot.
Unfortunately, the ones I got are 286 and 386sx machines, but they work
great for my voicemail system (which can run fine on an 8088). I would
love to find such a box with something more current, but SIIG doesn't
mention them on their web site.
