Interactive 386/ix 1.06 has, and SCO Unix V.3.2 will have, as options,
host based TCP/IP with support for the following dumb ethernet boards:
	- Western Digital WD8003
	- Ungermann Bass PC-NIC 2273A (maybe 386/ix only?)
	- 3Com 3C501/502/503 
	- Micom NI5010 (maybe 386/ix only?)
Sun's PC-NFS version 3 supports the same boards and more. If I were
planning for the future with PC-bus machines, I would pick from this list.
