I personally would modify Tom's response and say that 10bT NICs are fine
for 386/486 class computers because you'll never run the high color and
high bandwidth applications that would overwhelm the port on a faster PC.
Since you're now needing to protect that 10bT bandwidth and not waste any,

The NIC has enough resources that you can run it as a full X terminal,
rather than booting from a terminal server, and also do things like
local software rendered 3D (which isn't feasible on an app server).
Running apps off the CD drive is inferior to using an app server though.

1. Drop off business cards at all the little local stores that do
trade-ins for people buying a new computer, and buy up all their
junk computers at $50 each.
2. The www.thinknic.com people will sell you a machine (with
keyboard, mouse, powered spkrs, but no monitor) for $200 from stock.
