That's exactly the kind of information we need to have in a hardware list. There is no way one person can keep up with all of the possible manufacturers out there... but a card like this might really fit someone's bill. I am assuming here that it would be great in an old box that was going to be primarily a web/email terminal or some other use. Linux is very nice for being able to recycle older hardware into true usefulness, and paying attention to older cards is by no means a waste of time in this regard.... or for having nicer capabilities in single purpose boxes like firewalls.
