I'm running @home 2000 on a machine and it's fine. They, if you let them will install the software with a program called Tioga, this can be turned off by using msconfig under start, run, msconfig, startup. Just check the boxes that have to do with Tioga. PCI is better because it can share an IRQ with other cards, not what you want to do but it can be done. Can't do that with ISA.
