While I was working with Windows XP Embedded (after a long
absence from Windows), I noticed that they don't just work with
PCI IDs, but also with PCI-Subsystem IDs.
$ lspci -vn
03:00.0 0200: 168c:0013 (rev 01)
Subsystem: 1186:3a12
...
If vendors would make the subsystem ID wrong, then even Windows
XP wouldn't be able to detect the card correctly. That's quite a
big incentive to get that number right :-)
