== Emulation ==
* '''VirtualBox''' (3.1 is all I can personally confirm) supports rather dodgy implementations of an Intel PRO/1000 MT Server (82545EM), Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (82540EM), and Intel PRO/1000 T Server (82543GC).
** ''Bugs'':
*** The RAL/RAH registers do not contain the 48-bit hardware MAC address, the EEPROM must be used.
 
* '''VMWare Virtual Server 2''' emulates/virtualizes an 82545EM-based card rather well.
 
* '''QEMU''' (since 0.10.0) supports an 82540EM-based card and it seems to work OK. It is the default network card since 0.11.0.
** ''Bugs'':
*** QEMU does not properly handle the software reset operation (CTRL.RST).
*** The RAL/RAH registers do not contain the 48-bit hardware MAC address, the EEPROM must be used.
 
* IIRC (needs confirmation) '''Microsoft's Hyper-V''' supports an 8254x-series card.
