It is the 16-bit PC Card version. The card has worked in this laptop
under M$ before, if that's what you're thinking... Here's a message from the
mail archive that I found....
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2000/04/28/0005.html
It includes an updated driver from Gregory McGarry <g.mcgarry@qut.edu.au>,
which does mention the Intel PRO/100 NIC... I think maybe I should try this
updated driver? Anyone have more info for me?
