The Intel part numbers I found in the em readme are a few years old now, and I can't quite determine how happy people are with other chipsets despite my searches. I'm looking for a basic PCI 1-port card with jumbo frame support if possible--I can live without it. Either way, stability is much more important than performance. Thanks in advance for your recommendations. -- Matt Staroscik matt@wrongcrowd.com | http://wrongcrowd.com
