From what I recall, the genuine SB16 is most definitely _not_ ISAPNP ... it
predates it; unless the user has one of the more recent clones, of course.

Our ISAPNP detection also leaves a lot to be desired, mjg59 and I tried to
figure out how to build an alias table for the drivers a week or two ago, and
gave up as we either ended up with 200 drivers loaded for a given PNP id or none
