Hi-

Has anyone had and experience (good or bad) with an ethernet card called
the ELAN 200?  

I saw it at a retail store, and the manual said  to configure it for Netware
the same as a Novell NE-2000.  However, there was also an addendum saying
not to do that, but to use different drivers on an enclosed disk.  This would
seem to imply that they had problems and/or changed their mind, and
that the card is not entirely NE-2000 compatible.

Has anyone had success with the NE-2000 packet driver for this card?
If not, is there a different working packet driver?

I am interested because this 16-bit card is selling here in California
at the new SoftWarehouse for $160, quite a deal (they have the 8-bit WD8003
for $149).  Thanks!
