ISA slots - why do they still exist?

[Elledan]

Nothing but ISA slots in my old 486'ers and three ISA against three PCI slots in a P166 I have.

Zero ISA slots on my K7T Pro mobo, though

I wont buy a motherboard without an ISA slot.

No high-speed internet here, and I won't give up my USR ISA modem-its far better than any of the half-dozen winmodems I have endured.

I don't understand the people who b*tch about ISA slots on new MoBo. Most manufacters (sp?) share ISA slots with PCI slots, so it is not like you loss a PCI slot. Whats the big deal?

I have an ISA modem that I bought 4 years ago, and I don't plan on buying a new one, until it is an DSL or Cable modem.

I miss my AWE64
