> best cards in my opinion are Linksys LNE100TX which use tulip chip

Be warned that the Linksys PCI NIC's may come with one 
of three chipsets:  Old Tulip, PNIC, and a custom Linksys 
chipset which I think is basically Tulip.  I have some 
older ones which gave me a few minor problems.  IMHO a 
good cheap 10/100 NIC is the Netgear 310TX (or something), 
only $24 retail at CompUSA (and probably cheaper online 
and/or in bulk).  It has a plain tulip chipset that has 
worked for me 100% of the time.  My 3Com 905b has also 
worked fine, its just that they are a bit more expensive.
