Ok I see all you guys with "fancy" NICs. Outside of the obvious PCI vs
ISA, 10 vs 100, what is the differance? This is a question based on
ignorance so please be gentle. I have been using ne2000 and clones and
never had any problems that could be associated with the NIC. Granted I am
not nearly as big as most of you, but if this is just a disaster waiting
to happen.... Ships with holes don't float.
