I am very happy with my new EtherPower card. The performance seems to
be fine [I am serving a diskless Sun from my Intel box], and it does
not appear to cause the problems that a previous AT&T Starlan 10 card
caused with the ISA bus [most of the time when a packet for the
Starlan card came in, bytes serial port PPP connection to my service
provider would be lost].
