I don't know but I do know the seller can't count. He says there are 8 ISA slots on that board. Doh!

Mabye the other one is on a different motherboard.

Honestly I haven't had much experience with hybrid 3/4s. I tend to steer clear of them because an old friend of mine warned me that they can have issues with stability and compatibility, although he may have just encountered a bad board and projected that image on others.

At this juncture, I'm not gonna go out of my way to get one myself though.

I have one. Nice toy to have and to play with 😀
As exotic as these socket 5 VLB-boards.
