Only some cards need A/ROSE. Those have a Motorola 68000 CPU on them. I'm not quite sure what they needed the extra power for though. The rest of the world relies on your computers CPU to handle pretty much everything, those only need the drivers a.k.a the Apple Enet extension and a few others. EtherTalk Phase 2 (and someone correct me if I'm wrong) is not really a driver. I allows your Mac to use AppleTalk over an Ethernet network. It still relies on the hardware driver to function.
