Someone here wants to build a single board computer with an Ethernet
interface.  We have information on three Ethernet chip sets: the
AMD Lance, the Intel 82586 and the National 8390.

We're looking for information, opinions and rumours on the above chips
and any others that will do the same job.  Which ones work ?  Which
ones don't ?  Which ones are people using ?  What about availability ?
Ease of programming ?

Please send me mail, and I'll summarize to the net.  Thanks.
