Yeah I was searching TH99 and came to the same conclusion.
However since it doesn't have serial/parallel ports either it looks like one of the ISA slots will go to an IO card anyway. Just have to make sure I find one that won't conflict with the onboard IDE ports. Can you disable or change resources for those in BIOS?

It would, except that I don't have the same chipset in both PCI and VLB versions. In fact, the only VLB video card I have is a Trident-something, and the only PCI card I have is a Radeon 7000 (which is not even usable in a PC because I flashed it for Mac many years ago and used it in a beige G3 back in the day)
(edit) Not entirely correct. I do have a Geforce 8400GS PCI; for some reason though I suspect I'd have trouble finding this chipset in VLB. 😀
