Are you saying that they do work? Why do people keep ignoring me? I get about twice the throughput that is reported for the '589's using an Accton EN2216, and (at least around here) they're a much cheaper card. You should see similar if not identical results with any other NE2000-clone PCCARD. > -Greg -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control.
