If this question is answered in a FAQ then please direct me there.

If I upgrade to an EISA machine will I be able to use all my ISA cards in it.
Bear in mind I am running OS/2 (I hope this makes no difference).

Secondly is local bus really any good (compared to EISA, ISA).

What kind of range of cards is available for EISA (how many $$$).

What benifits will EISA offer over ISA.

Thanks for any help

MArk Harvey
