Ahem, Ethernet cards DO generally come with DOS packet drivers. I have four
diffrent cards and they all had DOS drivers on the accompaning disks. Mind
you, I didn't specifically look for those that had so either I'm very lucky
(which I find unlikely) or almost all have DOS drivers. Getting Linux to
find the cards is another thing altogether (but we have already gone over
this - no point in another flame-war right Steven <g>).
In case the cards manufactureror don't ship (or have) drivers, one of the
more generic drivers might work.
If we go after what I have bought: Buy the cheapest card you can find and
you'll get the drivers ;-)
