Thanks, I will check this out. Would you know if the Linux drivers support
the load balancing features of the EtherExpress Pro?

Would you mind helping me out in knowing what specifications to inspect to
know if a particular switch is enterprise level, or is at least somewhere
near? I'm checking out the Arotto brand of switches, now (although haven't
purchased them), and would like to see (through the technical specs) if it
will be a better solution to the Intel inBusiness line, one of which I
have.
Thanks a lot! :-)
