Date: 6 Jul 1996 00:33:40 GMT Organization: Panda Designs Lines: 12 Message-ID: <4rkc94$q6h@ns2.mainstreet.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: pandadesigns.com Hi, does anybody have know whether or not the 3COM 3C590 (PCI) offers better performance under BSDI 2.1 compared with the 3C509 (ISA)? I'm trying to spec a Pentium system for a heavy-traffic Web server and wanted to know if it was worth the few extra dollars to get the PCI version. Thanks! Michael Wang mwang@pandadesigns.com
