Since we are on the subject of ethernet parts, does anyone know of a
source for 8392 chips in a standard dip package? One local surplus dealer
in town has a ton, but they think they are worth $20+/ea, so I need to
find a source for at least a couple parts.

I'm currently looking at the DS80C400. That
is one scary chip.
Hardware math accelerator, 10/100Mbps ethernet controller, TCP/IP
stack and multitasking OS primitives in on-chip ROM...most impressive.
I've got some samples. Unfortunately it's beginning to look like I might
have to buy and cannibalise an Ethernet card. Unless someone here has a
spare they want rid of. I need the Ethernet interface transformer and
RJ45 socket to be intact at the very least.
