Yup, the seperate cards are real expensive.. same with when VLB was the big thing though.. I remember the ISA ones were like 20$ and the VLB ones were like 70$... I dunno why PCI is so out of range.. but ah well... not many people need 'em anyways.. Actually I don't see why anyone would need 'em.. Cause the PCI/ISA MB's come with 'em built in (any decient board anyway), and the VLB/PCI boards will run fine with a VLB one.. but I guess that'd be the place for them... anyways.. I'm babbling on here.. Haven't sold any of 'em.. I just tell people to buy a new motherboard.. it's almost cheaper. (in the long run)
