		+	NOTE: Take the PCI network card pile and sub-sort it into two piles, those marked 100 or 1000 somewhere on the faceplate and those that are not. ''(Some network cards are marked both 10 and 100. These should be put in the "MARKED 100 or 1000" pile.)''
		+
		+	== Step Four -- Finish Up ==
		+	See if it's correct. You should now have up to 13 piles:
		+
		+	# Video Cards, AGP
		+	# Video Cards, PCI
		+	# Video Cards, PCI-Express
		+	# Video Cards, OTHER
		+	# Modems, PCI
		+	# Modems, OTHER
		+	# Sound, PCI
		+	# Sound, NON-PCI
		+	# Network, PCI, marked 100 or 1000
		+	# Network, PCI, NOT marked 100 or 1000
		+	# Network, NON-PCI
		+	# Wireless
		+	# Miscellaneous, PCI or AGP
		+	# Miscellaneous, Other
		+
		+	'''Have someone check your work''' and then put the cards in their boxes. (Check the box contents as you go, since someone before you might have made a mistake!) ''The boxes are behind you, probably in the same order as above''
		+
		+	Thanks for helping us sort these cards!

	: I've noticed that the biggest problem people have is sorting not by the flow chart, but by looking at the pictures. That works fairly well for sorting, but there are a few cards that are tricky, and the bigger problem with that is that they don't learn how to read a flow chart. To try to fix that problem, I added one box in the flow chart and moved the pictures to their own page. I mentioned this idea to Rfs, but other input is welcome.		: I've noticed that the biggest problem people have is sorting not by the flow chart, but by looking at the pictures.

		+	I simplified the main chart, and created separate charts for subsorting.
		+
		+	One guy the other day had a hard time dealing with flow charts. He finally got it, but the simpler the better. This may be someone's first intro to flow charts.

-I'm laughing at "small round sound ports" but I like the flow chart overall.  Not sure about the rest of it, still thinking about that.  I was also thinking about trying to remove the combo pile since we don't use them and just put them in the everything else pile as well.  Did we ever decide if we could remove the PCI video card pile as well?
