3c509 are very good NICs, there must be millions of them in use and should be quite
cheap. Just be careful of the variant with PnP, you must turn off the PnP feature if
you get those (I think they are called 3c509b, but check with the 3com web site).

Most modern PCI cards will work fine, and then you don't have to the
option-128/option-129 thing in dhcpd.conf. The kernel will find the right driver and
insert it. These cards, however, are more expensive.
