Table 16: System Resources
Note that most of these resources are configurable and, in many cases, the Operating System
will alter these settings. The main devices that are subject to this dynamic configuration are on-
board Ethernet, sound, video, USB, and any PC/104 cards that are in the system. These settings
may also vary depending on what other devices are present in the system.
