Duke Kamstra and Robin Lodi are the people who went to bat and persuaded the legal dept to release the stuff (and then sent it to me). I have been asking them for the EISA specs for some time and the PCI and EtherEZ were the first that they came up with. I'm hopeful that the EISA stuff will be forthcoming. The specs I was asking for were the 8033W twin-channel EISA card. I'll ask them about the 82M32C as well. --Paul
