Yes Ted, I can....
                      I know others disagree with this, but... from my
experience, the PCI modems can be a real pain to get installed properly. I just
went through it, myself! There are claims that the PCI bus is much faster.
Unless you're connecting at the Max. speed, you'll probably never notice any
diff. Since you already have an available ISA, I think you may be happier with
the ISA model.. also, there are some great buys out there on name brand ISA's.
Good luck in whatever you decide!
