Well, for what it's worth, I went to Best Buy last night, and found that
they had a great deal on Netgear equipment.  I bought the FS108 8-port 100
Mbps switch for $90, and four FA311 network cards for $10/ea.  Plus, there's
a $5 rebate on each card!

I rebuilt my kernel to support the sis driver, enabled gateway, firewall,
and natd, installed two cards, put the other two cards in a couple of Win2k
boxes, and it works!

Thanks to all who responded!  That's one thing I have come to appreciate
about the FreeBSD community:  Ask an intelligent question, and you'll have
more answers than you know what to do with :-)

Sincerely,
