After much work searching out Ethernet cards/specifications etc I have come to the conclusion that there needs to be a PC Ethernet scorecard created to keep track of the cards. Ie IRQs, shared ram addresses, rom addresses, DMA channels, memory size, drivers available, price etc. Any vendors/users willing to type in a short blurb of technical information can add to this card to be posted frequently as updates require. In this current age of upper memory ram cram we are finding that there are some conflicts which you start to talk about SVGA/Ethernet/Scanner/Fax etc cards all in one machine. Maybe we could start with some technical summaries for 3com/WesternDigital etc.
