How about a Dell PowerConnect 2216? They are currently $49US for an unmanaged 16port that can be rackmounted with the included hardware. Quiet and fairly reliable.

I need to add another ethernet card to the box, but have run out of PCI slots. Currently there is an Intel dual port (fxp) in there and I'm considering one of the above as a replacement. Could anyone with experience with one of these cards comment as to the pro's/con's of either card? Steve

Compgeeks is offering a 4port RTL8139D nic for an attractive price. I know the 8139 chipset is supported, not quite so sure of the 8138D. Can anyone speak for these cards? The price is nice and a 4port nic would be very handy.
