I don't think so either. I did a search on the Intel site, and those
cards have been discontinued for over 8 years now.
E1000 (aka Intel 8254X - series) is the interface that comes on pretty
much every Intel-based motherboard's built-in NIC for at least the last
3 years or so. Probably 8 years, since the last series was discontinued.
Anyway, thanks for the (apparently off-topic) help.
