But hey - that's just me.

I'll see what I can do about getting this info added to our docs.
The length question has come up a few times. It's already in one of the docs-its just a matter of finding which one.

Frankly its more of a "HD on Windows" question since the cards are pretty much guaranteed to fit into a Mac Pro/G5. ATX, Extended ATX, BTX, Server form falters and their respective cases all vary.

I dont know about redundant but full size PCIe and PCI cards are very rare outside the dedicated server market and HD cards are about the only time your average person is going to handle a card in a form factor this large. It's not a common size card and people do have questions about the size.
