This thread is marked OT. If you do not want to read OT messages then 
either create a filter in your mail client or if you really hate OT 
messages I can write a script for you to delete all messages from a pop3 
server with subjects that have OT in them.

From his post of 6/3/4:

Hi all,

I bought a pile of brand new (unused and unopened) AT2500TX (Allied
Telesyn) 10/100Mb network cards very recently.  I have enough to sink 
a battleship actually so I want to get rid of them at $5 a pop.  
Knoppix ran it with the 8139too module and I got Debian Woodie to run 
it with the same module (naturally) so there's no hassle with driver 
support there since 8139too is probably the most common driver.

As for Windows, the included disk comes with 95/98/NT drivers (and 
probably ME by default).  I have not had any success with Windows XP, 
I have not spent much time looking into it though.

I have a stack of these if you want one (or preferably 100), contact 
me by email or phone.

Cheers,
Michael.

I am told there was a post on CLUG recently, in which cheap ($5) 
network cards were availiable for sale. I seem to have missed the 
post, are there any still availiable? If so who can I contact?

Thanks,

John Winter
