Given the price of the card, you can almost always find a better one at 
roughly the same price.  For instance, this one:

dc0: <Intel 21143 10/100BaseTX> port 0xd800-0xd87f mem 
0xf3000000-0xf30003ff irq 7 at device 11.0 on pci0

was FREE last Christmas, from Office Depot.  It's a Belkin branded card 
and normally sells for $10 (at TigerDirect.com).
