Im no PKI/Crypto wizard ... however; Im not so sure why these (rainbow)
cards are sooo pricey, when now ... both 3Com and Intel Adapters have this
or similar tech on their most basic NIC's.

the Intel PILA8470C3, and even the PILA8460C3 Desktop adapter. In addition I
beleive the newer Gigabit fiver nics as well as Intels new Gigabit over
Copper nics have both the onboard encryption processors as well as the IP
Traffic acceleration chips.

PILA8460C3 - $60 +/-
PILA8470C3 - $80+/-
PWLA8490SX - $300 +/-
PWLA8490T - $295 +/-

Whats the diff's between the rainbow stuff and 3coms/Intels NIC's ?
