Thanks, Ben

Intermediate switches... I'm getting more than I bargained for here.

The pressing need we have for p2p doesn't involve a setup with 2 devices 
under the same PHB, so I'm thinking maybe I should skip it for now, but 
I'd like to at least understand what would be required. google tells me 
I need to find a pci spec about ACS, is that right? Do you have it? Am I 
entering a world of pain?
