> Is there such a thing (external PCI-E)? > There are products that take PCIe externally but afaict there is no standard for the connectors, cables, etc yet. There are also products that bridge from PCI* to some other high speed interface and back to PCI*. www.magma.com has products of both the aforementioned types. They aren't cheap though. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
