Not to complain, but, what are you supposed to do if you have something
plugged into the only serial port?   An internal ISA is the only option.
Where I work there are a lot of pieces of equipment (gas chromatographs,
HPLCs, FTIRs, Colorimeter doohickies) reporting data through the serial
port.   The new stuff uses SCSI or special cards.   but say at home I have
a docking station for a Palm V (I wish),   I don't want to unplug it every
time I use the modem.
