Yes, and no. The Amiga can not use the cards in the IBM slots unless the slots are 'bridged' to the Amiga bus _and_ you have software drivers to handle the board. There's only one product I've heard about that bridges the slots (called goldengate) but I've never seen it or heard of anyone who has, and I don't know of any drivers available to handle the cross-over. Even installing an BridgBoard to allow PC emulation under AmigaDos will not give the Amiga side access to the IBM cards.
