Once again, 3Com has made changes to the 3C905<xyz> card which broke the
linux driver (latest patches applied), resulting in 500MHz PIII Dell
Dimension systems which are functionally considerably slower than a bunch
of older PII 233's with older ethernet cards.   *sigh*

I'm at the point where I'm ready to take delivery on systems with no
ethernet card and just buy one off the shelf to put in myself.  The 3Com
cards suck, period.

Has anyone seen any stats or comparisons which rate 100Mb ethernet cards
(reliability, speed, and cost in that order of importance) when used
specifically in linux systems?
