Ok,

I know this was talked about a few months back, but, after searching the
archives and trying to remember, I can't seem to come to a hard
resolution.

I know the 3COM 3c90x is supported with the vx driver, but it seems
there was a lot of talk about it being a slow performer.  Is this still
true? I need to swap out a fritzy card and I have a 3com 3c90x combo
10Mbps PCI card. Should I expect sub-par performance if I use this card?

Thanks,

Eddie
