  EISA is 33 MB/s 
  100bt is about 10 MB/s

  ISA is 5 MB/s (maybe)


  And yes, I believe that there are supported EISA 100bt cards available, 
based on the DEC chipset.  I believe these are the ones available from 
SMC.

  I have a dual-channel SCSI-2 EISA controller that has no problem doing 
a combined 20 MB/s, so 100bt wouldn't be a problem.
