They BOUGHT
it...BOUGHT != KILLED. Now Tulip chips have Intel logos
on them. At least I'm pretty sure I've seen some...it may have been a
nightmare or something. ;)
Those el-cheapo Linksys cards that I like because the newer ones rarely
fail on me and when they do they are cheap to replace, are Tulip. And
they're faster because of it.
I hope you don't mean the EtherFast 10/100 LNE100TX cards... they are
*way* too sensitive to noisy LANs... I've had to pull several and replace
them with either Intel Pro/100 adapters, or drop back to some old 3Com
3c509 10Mbps combo cards... Of course, YMMV, etc...
