3c501 cards should not be used anywhere, of course. I've heard some bad things about ne2000 clones, but have used several from different manufacturers and never had a problem. Performance isn't great, but considering the price, they aren't all that bad for a small network.
Of course, if you get some recently-introduced cards, there might be a wait until somebody writes a driver. The Ethernet-HOWTO has some good advice in this area.
