Clyde,
I use a 10/100 card in my 7500 and in my son's PC that
has the Realtek chipset.  It works great!  I bought it on
eBay last year from a seller named jmadera.  They always
have some for auction.  Here is a URL:

They also have a "kit" which is two NIC's and a cable.
They provide the drivers for Mac and PC.  Worked for me!
