Yeah, you could do that.  The bus is connected, there's a place for
two more AT connectors.  The reason they're left out is to allow for
fat XT cards that extend into the space normally occupied by the
AT connector.  They tell me this is common practice in the world of
Clone machines.  I take their word for it....
