I got reply from magma about the PCIe to PCI solution for those who own the pci to pci magma, here is the content:-

Thank you for your inquiry. You are in luck. Our engineering department will be releasing a PCI Express host card that will function with our current PCI Expansion systems that have the black, round cable. The price of the PCI Express host card will be $299.00 & should be released in the next couple of months.

That's crazy....I only paid $190 for my 7 slot Magma with a PCI card and cable. It was brand new factory \"B\" stock, returned to them because of shipping damage, it had a slight dent on the side, which you can't see when it is in the rack. Magma still made a profit on the sale, so what do you think their cost is ?

Black, round cable? Mine has a flat, gray cable! Does this mean i'm f*cked?

Thank you for the news! :) I don't need this yet but it does mean I have a guaranteed PCI capability for the foreseeable future :)
