If you are a GBC/Vitek customer, you may have received a fax last
week for an Intel promotion on their EtherExpress 10/100 PCI cards.
Limit 2, for "evaluation" purposes.  $50 each.  Normal price seems
to be $100, which is not really that bad...

GBC is a distributer, in the same class as Merisel, TechData, Arrow...
Their western office is in Carlsbad, CA, if that helps.  Sorry I don't
have their number at home.
