It's possible some specs were in error. I've heard PCI-e and PCI-x
used as express even though these 2 are completely different (PCI-x is
slightly older BTW) Also HP web page have shown a few error before.
Once I caught them claiming a model could take 2GB RAM total yet
stated it takes max of 2x 512MB sticks.
