I did a survey of the local market[1] and ended up buying a
3C905C-TX-M.  Along with hpa's PXELINUX this gave me a complete
net-boot "solution", which I'm happily using now.

Now to mark down my hours on the timesheet[2] and go to bed.

[1] I drove to CompUSA, Digilink, and Best Buy and looked at
their selection of network cards.

[2] Well, timesheet file, in a format I invented.
