We got a PCI version from an AMD rep although it took some work.  They
haven't made the reference boards for years, and the pcnet pci chip was
almost entirely used for onboard networking (often in compaq's).  I have
also seen it on a dual port copper/fiber card bade by allied telecom or
somethin like that (AT2100 and such).

It is also what vmware emulates.

For the isa version, I have never personally seen one.

What reason do you have for wanting that one?
