Close friend of mine was an LSI designer at Commodore Engineering. She went to Compaq just before that folded. Now she has her name on some of the key patents for hot-pluggable PCI. [/b]
<b>Hot-pluggable PCI?</b> Now, there's an interesting thought... are you supposed be able to open the PC's case and remove the cards while the system is up and running? That would be quite a trick in the first place, although I'm honestly sure why someone would want to try it.

Or does this not refer to the internal PCI slots but something else entirely?

Gee, let's switch the video card without shutting down,
