Yes Virginia, A = A.  The subtle difference you missed was that a 27110B

card was being discussed here.  A short summary:

	CARD		WORKS IN S500		WORKS IN S800 (aka HP-PA)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
       27110A		    yes				NO
       27110B		 yes, faster than "A"		yes
