The U of O has a bunch of old Ultras: plain Ultra 1s, at least one Ultra Enterprise 1, Ultra 1 Creators, Ultra 1 Creator3Ds, Ultra 5s and a handful of Ultra 10s. The only ones with 10 Mbps NICs are the very oldest plain 1s and the Enterprise. All the others have happymeals. I suspect the truth here is closer to "David's U1 has a Lance NIC and narrow SCSI controller" than to "all non-Enterprise U1s have Lance NICs and narrow SCSI controllers" In any case, I have at a spare happymeal NIC (two if I decomission my SS20 or downgrade it to the onboard Lance), so this is not an issue.
