Forget it. TIPC has been described as this: Dare to be different.
They mean it. As far as I know, there are NO expansion card for IBM
can be used for TI. You have to look into persyst borad, or 
the seeker board from western automation. Be also very careful
about harddisk controllers cause they are NOT compatible to the IBM PC.

Apparantly, the people in TI Austin had made some unwise decision 
several years back. But I think they should have learnt this already.
For us who got TIPC, either we throw it away, or we stick with it for
another while. Hold on!
