Just FYI...

3Com 3C5xx series are 16bit cards, i.e. 3c509 is ISA 10Mb, 3C589 is PCMCIA 16bit 10Mb. All 3Com 3C50x series are ISA cards

3Com 3C9xx series aer 32bit cards, i.e. 3C905x is PCI 10/100Mb cards, 3C985 is PCMCIA 32bit 10/10Mb. All 3Com 3C90x series are PCI...

Just a little FYI.

Enjoy!

The box said "Install Windows 2000 or better", so I installed LINUX!
