Since no one responded to my previous query about my New Media PCMCIA
ethernet card, I assume no one has one, or no one's heard of it.

I found my original documentation, which is essentially useless as far as
NetBSD goes.  It isn't recognized by the INSTALL kernel, so I figure I'm
SOL with it.

My second choice is a LinkSys NE2000 clone PCMCIA card.  I've found it
for as little as $68, so I figure it's not a bad investment.  Can anyone
verify that it works with the PCMCIA ne* driver?  CDW lists it as
mfgr. part number "LNK-EC2T", and the text blurb bills it as

"...And it's Novell NE2000 compatible, so you don't
 have to worry about finding the right network drivers..."

Anyone currently using one of these or forsee any reason why it wouldn't
work?
