Hello Kojo,

Actually - PCI is much easier to use since it perfectly avoids
resource conflicts - and most of todays software are made with PCI in
mind, not ISA (performance...)
If you are intrested only in software way - go with PCI - life will be
easier, and possibly Storm will even take care of all the modules by
itself...
Or - if you want to aciqure some real experience with HW
configurations - try to make them all work ;) - it's always fun
(especially if you are out of time or working cards)
