Hi,
	I'm looking at purchasing a stack of gigabit cards for use on my
FreeBSD machines. These do not need to be super-high-end cards, just basic
functionality since many of the machines only have 32 bit slots. They do
need to work well with FreeBSD.
	Right now it looks like the low-end Intel cards would be the best
deal at about $40-50/card.

Paul
