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. -- T.E.D.
