I just want to make a point that not all NICs like crossovers, what with
them being non-standard and all. I've got a 3Com 905C-tx that doesn't
like talking thru a crossover to ISA ne2k's. I think it's probably a
manufacturer thing, but I couldn't get a link thru it. This is with 2
crossovers, aquired from different locations. Come to think of it, it's
probably the ne2k's that are old enough to have kids who don't do the
crossover thing.

No, I was looking for warez. The pornography was just a useful byproduct.
