   The Lance Ethernet chip is used in most NE2100 clone ethernet
   cards.  I have a ZEOS Pentium-100 system with the AMD SCSI/Network
   chip, and it works fine under Linux using the Lance driver.  Other
   examples of cards that use the AMD Lance ethernet chip are: Allied
   Telesis AT1500 and HP J2405A.

Except for the AMD, those are all ISA cards.  We were specifically
looking for a PCI LANCE device.  I know there are add-on cards with
them, but I've not had much success finding one.
