Can other cardss work? I've got a bunch of unused cards. Got them 
when a friend who does consulting switched to selling 100meg cards 
only. So he gave me his remaining stock of 10 mbit cards. 

I'm trying to remember the brand. If I hit my storage soon, I'll try 
to dig them ouyt and check. It's not 3com or Realtek though.
