Oh come on folks, PCI is a bus/socket standard for mother boards and 
pluggin cards that fit them, whereas the link being bandied about as if the 
Gospel according to Luke or whatever, hasn't a thing in common, or to do 
with the OP's question.

So stop trying to be so damned smart at confusing a newbie who asked the 
question because he actually wanted to know what it was.  Credit card 
processing data security has zero connection to his question.

For a link, somewhat emasculated because the actual standard is a 
commercially published, for lots of money, paper, a copy of which is likely 
only interesting to motherboard and compatible card makers, see

Cheers, Gene
