I read that getting the specifications for PCI cost at least $1000 it may have cost more when there was only PCI.
At the same time there was AGP by intel, not sure if it cost anything back then to get the specs.
Is PCI fast enough to justify the extra cost?
At the time it was exactly the right choice. PCI was still readily available for many card types including video and cost less. AGP was video only.
Now as we go forward the question is wouldn't PCIe be good to implement for future boards. The question is, does anyone have the money to do it and is there enough market left?
