IOS will bitch, but unless this has changed recently, all interfaces will
"just work".  Of course you're on your own - if you complain to TAC about
"high CPU" and "packet losses", they are very likely to tell you "your
own fault".

OTOH, if the PA-A3s are *so* lightly loaded, I'd just go for it.

(I'm not sure I remember that right.  I think on the NPE-G1, the I/O
board is on a separate PCI bus, and could be replaced with a PA holder
card, which has its own set of bandwith points.  But maybe I misremember
part of this - you might want to check this in the docs).
