Except that I'd like to add a second ethernet port, and am not sure where one can find a card that will fit this machine. As far as I can see, it requires a half-height PCIe card, which seems to be rather a rare animal. (There doesn't seem to be a standard for the backplate.)
"low profile" is the buzzword, and there's lots of them. for example... http://www.intel.com/products/server/adapters/pro1000pt/pro1000pt-

Thanks for your response. But I don't think "low profile" is enough - the MicroServer needs half-height low profile, and I don't think from the pictures the ones you pointed to are half-height. (The backplate looks too high.)
Sorry, I see now that the Intel Pro PT you point to does say: "Optional low-profile bracket included for high-density, rack-mounted servers"
I'd been looking at the Pro CT, which may not have this.
