That's an understatement. It's actually really hard to find a new board
with an ISA slot, if it is possible at all.

I don't know, all that I had as ISA cards a few years back are onboard
components on my current hardware. That includes sound hardware. Onboard
network interfaces are also pretty common nowadays.
