Another Esix V.4 question I don't remember seeing: does it support EISA
systems (more than 16MB memory, controllers with I/O addresses > 4K)?
Does it support more than 16MB memory on an ISA system (driver buffers
restricted to low 16MB for DMA, paging and disk I/O may require
memory-memory copies before or after the I/O).

After the massive flurry of discussion which followed the announcement,
has anyone bought/got the system? how good is it?
