To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG never had a problem with SMC 1211TX in any BSD, Linux or Mazdai Usually $15 at Fry's. did not try this one for Solaris IA though. But... that subj flies in the face of Ted's preaching on long term consequences of short term fixes. Just proves that crowds have more similar traits than differences they are so proud of. NASDAQ anybody? :))) Willsonville, OR - 90 min drive from Vancouver, WA. so, in my case it's much cheaper to get to ENU and buy an Intel board for $41, plus I feel like I am boosting US economy while Greenspan has exhausted his options. so, I would look for high quality components at a [reasonable]discount instead. --- Charles Burns wrote: > Lynksys probably makes the cheapest decent card, the LNE100TX.
