BYTE magazine Nov 89 has a great article explaining the difference between
ISA and EISA.  The article name is "Inside EISA" it's on page 417.

There is also another article on EISA in May 91 issue of BYTE titled
"486 EISA: BORN TO BLAZE".  I haven't had a chance to read this one yet so
I don't know how much info it gives.
