Default Difference between these NICs?

Hey all!

I was wondering if anyone can tell me the difference between the following
two NIC's. Also, I've listed a few other NIC's below for comments. These are
all gigabit PCI network adapters.

- INTEL PWLA3890MTIBK - Uses 82540EM controller - I *think* this is the
best of the bunch...
- INTEL PWLA3890T-0EM - Uses 82544GC controller

...comments on the following?

- TRENDnet TEG-PCITX
- Netgear GA302T

Muchly appreciated!

You're right, "it's" the best of the bunch. The Trendnet is the
worst.

It's hard to believe they've dropped so much in price even before
widespread adoption of 1Gb. I saw it for $37 he
