[-- Attachment #1 --]
I'm about to go purchase an off the wall brand pci 10/100 network card.  I don't know what brand the chipset is or anything, and it is doubtful that it has unix drivers.  I am under the impression that with a pci card, I don't have to worry about network card drivers.  Is this true?  Or should I spend an extra 30 bucks and get a 3com?
