Yeah, that's right.

You can put PCI-X cards in PCI slots. We have two dual Athlon boxes
each with an Intel dual E1000 server adapter in a PCI 64/66 slot and
that works just fine. I haven't tried them in a PCI-32/33 slot, but I
expect that would work fine, too. (that's at least the theory behind
it).
