Electrically (someone correct me, I'm probably wrong) PCI is
limited to 6 physical plug-in slots I believe, let's say it's 8
to choose an arbitrary larger number to be safe.
Minor nit... it can in fact be higher than this, but typically it is
not. CompactPCI implementations may go higher (different electrical
characteristics allow for this).
