BTW I should add - the chipset is really dead. Intel has bought
LevelOne and killed it. You are unlikely to be able to get any
new cards for it. But it is an quite interesting architecture
(with some complete stupidity and some interesting features) and rather
different from a classic Tulip/AMD like network card.
