Having an external device that does the

PCjr or PC clone doesn't need it.
I haven't looked at the Ethernet chipset solutions recently but the last
time I looked around I got hung up on the interfacing to an 8 bit PC
bus. A lot of them seemed to require a 16 bit bus.
The WIZnet W5100 does TCP/IP in
hardware. It can send / receive raw
packets as well, if you wane do TCI/IP in software. It offers a variaty
of bus options. (8-Bit MCU bus, SPI)
