Hi Christophe,
=09Perhaps the fact that FORE Systems was
purchased by Marconi is what's hindering down your
hardware search. Don't worry; the boards should be
very easy to purchase and there seem to be plenty
to go around.  Last week, I just asked the fellow
in charge about adaptors and he told me there are
no end-of-life plans for that board.  It is still
in production.
=09Perhaps you could check with your
favourite reseller for availability.  I noticed a
while ago that the reseller CDW had the boards,
though I'm not sure if they still do.  Seems to me
the larger equipment vendors tend to keep a stock
of our adaptors, at least in the U.S.  You might
want to ask for it as a FORE board and as a
Marconi board, just in case the vendor has
neglected to update their records..  I think the
biggest difference in the FORE and Marconi boards
is the box that they ship in.
