Cool! Can you point me to the manufactures of such 4-port ethernet cards?
Isn't it just a buit-in hub???
I think such a solution can live, if Linux 2.1 will work as a bridge.

By the way, is there something like HSRP on Linux? (I know it isn't, but
there is somebody implementing it just now maybe . . .)
