Euan,
We are presently using the SMC 9332BDT 21140-AC cards from a local
computer supplier here in Brisbane. You shouldn't have a problem finding
them, but be warned that we are having problems with the card specified
above.

For completeness, we have heard that tulip chipset cards do give good
performance, but be wary of the new cards. We were caught out by
aquiring the new SMC cards mentioned above, and it appears that the
tulip drivers are not quite mature enough to drive them properly (The
21140 is a 100Mb/s card).

If you are after a working 100Mb/s card, I have heard that the SMC
9332DST 21140-A cards work well with the tulip driver (these are the
cards that the author of the tulip driver actually uses).

We would be interested to hear how you (or anyone else who uses SMC
cards), get on with these cards.

We are presently achieving a throughput of 0.5KBytes/second, but this
improves with each new release of the tulip drivers.
