[plug] Re: want to buy [cheap] network cards [UNCLASSIFIED]

[David Buddrige]

Thanks Julian, Daniel, 

I'll confirm this evening whether I need EISA or ISA.  If its ISA, then I'll 
probably just buy brand-newies, otherwise, I'll contact you - but probably 
not until later this week.  I'm in Northern Suburbs [Koondoola] so either 
Applecross or Canningvale is a little bit of a hike, but if I need a EISA, 
I'm willing to travel. 8-) 

thanks heaps 

David.
