FM Radio on AIW X600 Pro (PCI-X)

I live in Asheville NC. Most of the stations we pick up are long distant and
the other side of mountains. The FM radio capacity in the X600 has better
fringe area reception than my home stereo or even my car radio.

I realize that this is off topic and seems minor, but there is no such thing
as a "PCI-X" X600. There is a PCI-E X600, but none for the PCI-X bus which
is very different from PCI-E. Yes, the names are confusing. I suspect
that they are supposed to be.
