The WD8003/A Microchannel card is very close, but not quite identical
to the PC/AT bus card.  In particular, the MCA card has more memory and
a different on-board bus width.  Our driver works on all the WD8003 family,
which requires a little special code to deal with the MCA card's bus and
some chip glitches (see the Nat. Semi errata sheets for the 8390) on 1Mb
networks.  The latest release of the Clarkson packet drivers has source
for a driver which can handle at least the MCA and PC/AT cards.
