This board seems to be twice as expensive as the P4P800 SE. That's more
than I intended to spend, so I ordered the P4P. (There was only a P4C800-E
in the dealer's list, I hope this is the one which was ment.)

Well, I don't need the gigabit stuff. It's there, but I don't have any othe=
r gigabit
hardware. The mentioned card is even only 10 MBit. I don't need any excepti=
onal
network performance, it just has to work.

Thanks for your opinions, also to Manuel.
