    it uses the atx12v/atxeps12v powesupply which is not the same as
    "standard atx" ( at least in the latest catalog i see/have and is what we
    used too )

    i have all the tyan mb details from their silly/lstest [paper] catalog
    and their specs

    dual athlons mb w/ 5+ pci slots
            S2466N-4M - 4x 32bit, 2x 64bit pci
            S2469GN - 3x 32bit, 1x 64bit pci
            
    dual opterons does NOT have "enuff 32bit pci" slots ( typiclly 1 or 2 )
            or 5 dual opteron or 6 w/ single opteron
            and neither of these 5 or 6 pci slot mb had 64bit pic

    - on and on goes the searching for mb w/ the "right specs"
      per the original list of requirements
