As others have mentioned the DEC Tulip driver doesn't get much specific 
FreeBSD attention as its an imported port. I had to yank a 20140 in 
favor of an NE2000 out of frustration and desparation. Now that system 
is running am not going to touch it.

David Greenman personally mothers the fxp driver for the Intel board.
And at $51.50 from http://www.asacomputers.com I don't hardly see how it
can be beat. Put one in my home machine a few minutes ago to free an 
ISA slot and IRQ for a sound card.
