A tail of two NICs - help needed

[Raul A. Gallegos]

ummmmm, well with nics in my experiences they have been like memory.  If
it works from the beginning it will pretty much work for a very long time.
If you have troubles from the get go then you will have problems.  The few
pairs I've used have never given me trouble.

For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals..  Then
something happened, which unleashed the power of our imagination...
We learned to talk...
