Okay, I've got some math to do, but the drive won't be pulling 66 MBps
all the time right? I assume that there exists the possibility of a
bottle neck if you're pulling something across your (pci) ethernet card,
dropping it on the new ata66 hard drive (connected to the new pci ata66
controller) while watching TV via my pci wintv card and playing quake
with my pci video card and pci 3d card.
I guess it's time to get an agp video card...
