Ah. good decision! :)
For that one reason that I can try to sell it on Ebay for a high(er) price
than I would have sold it to you, for the other reason that I believe you

the NE2000 via the ISA bus.

I would have surprised anyway if that setup would have worked in a good way. :)

PS: I think I will order the USB module for the X-Surf in February... ;)
