  If I take that your "NE2000 $10 NIC's" is what you call 100Mbit
  hardware, then.. would you mind if I ask: what do you expect more from
  such $10-harware other than just to flicker and to eat electric current?
  
  Use *real* 100Mbit hardware please :). BTW I have same performance
  with my sis900/rl8139 NIC's.

  	cheers,
	Martin
