  And if you miss this bargain you can get a SWAN board, with ET4000,
1MB, and a waranty for $199. It comes with drivers, but I only run UNIX
so I don't particular care which one's. If you do, you should call and
ask, their phone people were very sharp, a real surprise.

  When I called I didn't have the part number, but I asked for a 1MB
board with ET4000 and they knew which one it was. They knew about asking
if I wanted the interlaced or non model (unfortunately separate boards),
and when I asked about UNIX they kew Xenix and ISC worked, which is
loads better than I usually get. Price dropped from $229 to $199 w/ 1MB
recently, so I won by waiting.
