Strengths: Nice purple bits on card
Weaknesses: Drivers don't work, non-technical technical support.
Summary: Well I've had to do a complete reinstall since I bought these cards. I have three NT servers and they don't like any of them overmuch. My Compaq 6000 would not install it into the PCI 64 slot, so it is currently languishing in PCI 32. I have had numerous NDIS errors since installing them, and so tried updating the drivers on one server, which screwed it completely. The server started rebooting itself, it became impossible to delete the drivers from the system, so I tried a reinstall of NT, which screwed up completely due to some unspecified network error. This left me in the position of having to flatten the server and completely rebuild, with subsequent restore from backup. What fun. For reference 3Coms tech support can barely speak English, and could offer no more helpful suggestions than a driver upgrade (see above). Christ knows I'm not going to install these on my production server. I am now running back at 100 and wondering if I can get a refund (ha)
