I may have a Intel 8/16 RJ-45 card you can have.

If you can wait till ale meeting, I'll give you a transceiver. 
Hate for you to spend $29 on an older network card.

		        Datacom Warehouse (same company as (PC|Mac)
Warehouse) usually 
		stocks stuff like this and has reasonable prices.

		        Of course for the $30+ you're going to pay for a
transceiver,
		you could probably get a halfway decent 10/100 nic with RJ45
built
		right in . . .
