RE: Intel EtherExpress pro/10+ cards

["Christian Gruber" <Christian.Edward.Gruber@gmx.net>]

I have had great success with an NE2000 card... but it's the card which goes

for... mind you. If I stripped of all the little jutting-out bits of metal I
could set my UN*X coffee mug on it!

Our pilots don't drink nearly as much as they used to.

Hit the archives for nightmares that people have with ne2k's.

for 386/20s that were slower than ethernet.
