I can, I just bought one, and am sort of lurking here in order to find
out how to get sound to work. :)

In the meantime, I can state that I have had no problems with the NIC,
rl(4) seems to support it just fine, and both the regular onboard ATA
and the Promise controller seem to work just fine with a custom kernel
-- IIRC, it may have even worked with GENERIC, but I only booted GENERIC
during the install.

4.7-RELEASE install and 4.7-STABLE running currently.
