Agreed!  PCI-X cards have extra connectors to allow them to be used in
servers with all the remote control and monitoring.  They can and will
work in standard PCI sockets provided there isn't any hardware 
(capacitors, heat sinks, large ICs etc.) to get in the way because 
they are generally 3/4 or full length cards.
