Don't worry. :-)

The $10 thing was correct, however. There is an overflowing surplus of 3c589 cards in the world - no-one wants a 16-bit 10M pcmcia card any more (except of course Amiga owners!).. Don't pay through the nose for "Amiga certified" stuff from an Amiga dealer, especially if you can find similar stuff cheaply on the free market!

There are usually several 3c589s available in eBay.. 3com Etherlink III PCMCIA is the full name of this pedigree dog.
