Does anyone have words of wisdom on what the "best" ethernet card for
the MCA is?  I'm looking for something with a packet driver or pc/ip or
NCSA support.  The WD 8003a sounds good, but I understand that it
malfunctions after 10-20 seconds in promiscuous mode (like when netwatch
is running).

Thanks.

Ben
