Can we get a thread to post what network hardware (NOT on-board--like PCI cards and such) works with Zephyroth? I for one am looking for a cheap yet quality NIC.

Try NIC with Realtek RTL8139D chipset. I got a "Level-One FNC-0109TX" for 6 Euros
and it works like a charm. (Onboard nForce didn´t).

I bought a cheap Netgear FA311 10/100 PCI nic because my onboard dual nForce lan didn't . It set me back around £10 / €13

Many of the "less-expensive" PCI cards are built using the Realtek chipset.

Trendnet uses the 8139 in their 10/100 PCI cards and the 8169 in their gigabit cards
Airlink101 does the same

Many PCI cards made by Chinese manufacturers use Realtek's reference design (they all look the same...)
Running both 10.5.8 and 10.6.4 on my stinking AMD/ATi machine...
