I am looking for tips and links about using these in any PCI PowerMac. Ultimately, I'd like to try one in a Pippin (yes, I have the PCI adapter board, a selection of ROMs and RAM cards, external SCSI etc) to see how much further it might be stretched.

The sort of questions for which I seek answers include: Do adapters require a software driver, or do they function as seamless bridges? What are the OS requirements above System 7.5.2? Am I right to assume that if a Mac PCMCIA or CardBus driver exists, it will function with a card mounted in an adapter?

Please note that I am not asking anyone to do my homework and merely seek a few pointers.
