I noticed on one of my notebook computers (Dell Inspiron 5000e running W2K
and Xircom Realport 56/10/100 NIC) that the entries under the network
adapter option are rather cryptic.  Anyone know why this is, and if more
meaningful data can be displayed here?  I jumped into the Etherpeek 4.1
evaluation and noticed it shows the descriptions (in English!) of each of
the entries.

I took a snapshot of what I'm seeing .. you can see it at:

Thanks for the advice,
