I just ran across an advertised NET-CINPRO100PCI-A Intel NIC for $4.

Not having "too many" cards at this point, I was immediately tempted.
This appears to use the "82558B" chipset, which I assume is covered by
the fxp driver.

Should I snap up a few of these, or treat them with the same disdain as
the comparably-priced RealTek cards?

I'm tempted to buy a couple just on principle.  Googling for them I
turned up http://www.bzboyz.com/store/product4765.html which sounds
reasonable.


Any comments on this particular card?
