I expect them at some point. But I'm an old hand with IPCs. ;)

As far as boards that you put in a regular ATX case, no. However, they still
have an ISA bus wedged in there for attaching SMBus, I2C, and hardware
watchdogs.

Also saw someone mention having to move a MegaRAID on an S4882; that's 
because PCIXB-2 (bottom slot) is for ZCR, and actually hard-routed in BIOS
to the mpt(4). Out of curiosity, does the TX46 say 'DDR 400MHz Memmory' too?
