Looks good. I just looked around - looks like manufacturers tend not to list the chipset in their NIC specifications (like here, for instance: http://www.trendnet.com/products/proddetail.asp?prod=140_TEG-PCITXR&cat=14 ) Is there a list somewhere out there listing what card features what chipset? It definitely looks like it is best to just stick to the better chipsets - might be a little more expensive but definitely worth the money. Thanks. Boris.
