	Usually true, however situations where you'd want to know which was 
which aren't that unusual.  For example... hooking one card up to a cable box 
or directv via svid or composite... you'd need to know which cable to hook up 
to and which device to configure.  If they're both going to the same cable feed 
(only), you don't usually care.

Just a though,
