This is true. Sun does finally have an LVD card, it's X2222A, dual fast
ethernet + dual 80MB/sec LVD SCSI on one PCI card for $2495 list.

You can get a dual port 160MB/sec third party card and a quad port 100mbps
Ethernet card for less than that, but if you can't use two PCI slots, it
may be a good idea. I'd throw an Intraserver dual SCSI and a Znyx qfe
tulip card in myself, and cut the price in half, assuming I had the slots
free.
