1. It's easier to change your settings later on. For example, lets say you
used IRQ 7 for your modem because your printer doesn't need it's IRQ anyway
but later you decide to add a Zip drive. With ISA-PnP you probably won't
even have to re-boot.
2. ISA-PnP gives you feedback if you try to assign a resource that is
already in use. With jumpers, chances are your only clue will be the fact
that the device doesn't work.
3. Jumper settings are often poorly documented and easy to screw up.
