The last Ethernet card I bought was a 16bit no-name (NE2k compat), complete
with flashing led on the back, for $60 from Hedlam.  If you find any cheaper
than that, I'd love to know.

(Only drawback was that they were software-configurable, with software for
DOS only.... teach me for using something as non-standard as Linux (*grin*))
