There are two companies that we know of that make Ethernet controllers
for VERSAbus:

1.	Communication Machinery Corporation
	1226 Anacapa
	Santa Barbara, CA  93101
	(805) 963-9679

	Their model is the ENP-20 which incorporates on-board RAM (32k bytes,
I think), DMA control, and utilizes the AMD LANCE/SIA (Am7990/AM7991).  It is
pretty "intelligent" due to the LANCE.  See the LANCE/SIA data from AMD.

2.	Associated Computer Consultants
	720 Santa Barbara Street
	Santa Barbara, CA 93101
	(805) 963-9431

	Their model is the V/EIU (VERSAbus/Ethernet Interface Unit.  Not as
sophisticated as the above, but not as expensive either.  Also they have a
lot of software support available and planned.
