But, but, it worked for me.. Sigh. Yet another example of the 
underwhelming architectural design of the pc.  Conversely, I've got two 
Sun's (Ultra 10's) with 4 quad etheret boards (yes, that's sixteen). we 
use 'em for jumpstart hosts.  No problem there.  I'm holding onto hope 
that things will change for the better regarding pc design.
