That's crazy ! a real backward step in technology ! What do they gain by this
change - nothing.

For what it's worth, the board I use (and am very happy with) is a Soltek
SL-75DRV5  but it
doesn't have the ISA slot you're looking for.  I've had it a while now, so it may
not even still be
available.
