I wasn't claiming that some people don't have problems, but that others do. If you watch the vortex development list, you'll see what I mean. It's one of those YMMV things. I worked with a machine that would lock up on a daily basis at 10Mb with the early 0.46 drivers. It's calmed down with the newest ones, but it was a big hassle before that. The tulip cards are cheaper and better supported. I'd go with that, and I have both. Note that I'm not using them at 100Mbit if it matters. -- Rob Browning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint = E8 0E 0D 04 F5 21 A0 94 53 2B 97 F5 D6 4E 39 30 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
