That's an interesting thought.  I think the RH 8.0 system I'm dealing with has
an integrated intel and a PCI Netgear FA310TX.  I've also experienced this on a
machine with an PCI 3com 3C509C-TX and a PCI Netgear FA310TX.  At home I
splurged a bit and I have a PCI Intel Ethernet Pro 100 (dual port nic).  None
of these I would consider "non-standard" or "generic".  They are the most
popular cards as far as I know.
