Yeah, low IO is also reserved on PC's (the low 256 IO ports are 
motherboard resources and contain stuff like legacy DMA channel setup 
etc).

You could imagine having it behind a PCI bridge, but in practice it's 
always on the NB/SB (and if you want to support some of the odder things 
like the NMI reason and the i387 error ports, they pretty much have to 
be - it would be insane to make a special PCI chips on a separate bus 
that does things like that).
