The Linksys 10/100 cards are very excellent. I have built close to 2 dozen computers using these cards. They are about $50 less (on average) than equivalent 3com cards and don't seem to have nearly the problems the 3com cards I've used.

Great deal!

Yes, I have these in two of my systems, with no problems.
Noticed someone mentioned pointclick has the 10% link--go for the extra $1.59, takes it down to $4.40.

Same card here and it's been a joy. Installed the card and was up and running in five minutes. Had some very minor setup problems when I had to reinstall Windows from scratch, but I was having problems getting everything working right at the time.
