I'd just like to say that as a longtime SUN user (Sun 2 workstations through current models have built in SCSI, video(sometimes) and ethernet on the motherboard), I've only encountered one system that had a defective onboard device. The ethernet on my SS1 died last year. That machine was purchased new in 1990 for 16K. It had *long* outlived its usefulness when the ethernet died. My experience is that onboard ethernet & scsi are just as reliable as add-on cards. As ethernet becomes ubiquitous in the pc world, most motherboards will incorporate it.
