Thanks Wilko! I should have posted the part numbers. Here is the DEC
number for a differential ncr pci card: KZPSA-xx. I think I have a KZPSA-BB.
I bought one or two from northeast digital but they don't have any right now.
One good feature of that card: it's an '825 (or earlier) I think, so it will
work with older SRM's that don't grok the '875.

Unlike fast ethernet cards, any mfr's card that has an ncr chip on it will
be recognized by SRM, so a Symbios or other ncr-based card will be fine.
