Another UNBELIEVABLE linux story!

While we're sharing Linux stories, maybe I should share this
one. I've swapped arcnet and modem and serial cards on more than one
linux system without it crashing :) I mean HOT SWAP :) If serial were a
module I woulda been able to use the new ports right off the bat, I
think. And I think I did get the arcnet card going from a hot swap.

NOTE: THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. EVEN MORESO THAN THE HARD
DRIVE THING. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME UNLESS YOU CAN ALIGN THE BOARD
CONNECTORS *PERFECTLY* ALL THROUGHOUT THE SWAP. Other than that, have
fun :)
