Yeah I remember them being really expensive back in the day. They
dropped in price after a few years and they where sold under other
brands (Farallon if memory serves) that 3Com owned to a much lower
price.
Yeah cost is why the 3c905 was relatively rare in the wild - not all companies could afford to roll them out on all their PCs. Places I worked for tended to go with the NE2000, its clones and descendents (e.g. RTL 8029 and 8139 based cards).
