You tell me a better[1] 32bit GigE PCI adapter than Intel E1000 and I sure do this. It's pretty interesting to see that those who buy some not-so-cheeep hardware are being screwed in this case; it should be in Intels best interest to help fix this issue ASAP and permantently for all users.
[1] better performance at less CPU utilization + good diagnostics and negotiation capabilities
