	These seem to be 21143-PD chips (at least that's the inscription):

		21143-PD
		DC1096B
		S 9911 JK4814
		Intel   1997

	There seem to be small eproms there (220-00102 -01 W1) and some other
	nice Chinese quality parts.  I doubt I'm helping much, but it's all
	I can offer currently.  There's a mac addr on the line at boot time,
	I suppose it's just a matter of grabbing it somehow.
