RE: pcmcia network cards
I used to be a big 3com fan, but I really now like the Intel Pro100B cards
(for PCI) and the Netgear FA310 ethernet cards-- brand new ~ --$70, I
havent' had a single problem, and the dongle looks pretty darn strong.
Haven't managed to break it, anyway.

Although I would of prefered the 3COM 10/100 cardbus BNC/RJ45 network card
I received the cheap and cheerful Xircom 10/100 card which works
flawlessly. I have had not one problem with my card and it seems to
perform well (considering I paid 30 pounds for it). I use it everyday at
either 100 or 10 speed and can't say anything bad about the card, for its
price.
I would still would take the 3COM card though :)
