[Prism54-users] looking for PCI card -- where does the "Perfect" come from?

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

I4, our sponsor provided us with several XG-900 cards. These were well
tested among us and hence all of us have confirmed they work great.

The Allnet was probably reported by someone when we had the form
enabled. 

A card that I have been using for a long time now and works great is the
3com card. I highly recommend it despite the fact that 3com decided they
were not interested in supporting our project.
