The 2940UW2 is around $190. The 2940UW is around $160 to $170. (The perils of working with to little sleep...) I tend to go with the Adaptec cards in Netware servers for clients (when I can't talk them into a FreeBSD box...). Whatever can be said about Adaptec, they are supported by _everybody_ and the good ones rock! (I keep a 1542 around expressly because it will work with every OS that I can think of.)
