And does the fact that they dominate the pro market mean anything? I work on a Mac with 1 PCI slots (my personal rig has 10). I prefer using an expansion chassis as there is more flexibilty in choosing sizes. I also don't want them to make a bigger chassis which won't fit into a 19" rack, which is a requirement for pro use. Maybe they exsist (I haven't looked very hard) but I haven't seen any 6 slot PCs that are rackable (not that finding a 6 slot rackable PC is a criteria for me). Colin Miller
