Unfortunately Dave already applied my patch (and somehow dropped the
"From: Scott" part of my email so I get blamed ;).  I didn't realize the

I guess we're just counting on being on to 100G ethernet by the time we
do another NIC... but seriously we should probably figure out what the
marketing name will be and improve the help text.
