[Asterisk-Users] Intel Desktop MotherBoards Unsuitable for Di gium Boards

I've seen it happen in slimline Compaqs, where the IRQ on the PCI slot was
shared with the onboard LAN. That'd be stupid stupid design for a 1U server
box, but, hey, I wouldn't put it past Dell (shudder)

It'd be pretty sad if they only had one PCI slot and assigned it to the same
IRQ as the onboard net.  Possible, but sad!
