Wanted to make a quick amendment to my previous note about Ethernet 
cards, where I stated that the Asante Cardbus card is the same as the 
CompUSA and uses more the same drivers that you can get from Realtek, 
with the same limitation that the card must be present at startup.

This may or may not be true -- it looks as if Asante has had two 
different Cardbus Ethernet cards out, and the information I stated is 
definitely true for one of them. The other requires different drivers and 
I know nothing about it. Unfortunately, their website doesn't make it 
entirely clear as to which one they are selling now -- it appears to be 
the one I described (based on part #), but the driver link suggests the 
other card. So Asante might conceivably be selling a card that is 
different and which has better (or not) drivers now.

Anyway, I'm happy enough with the CompUSA; the price was right.

Ivan.
