Of course this depends a lot on the device - ethernet on a SCC port
on a MPC8xx is different from ethernet on a FEC on a MPC860-T or -P,
which in trun is different from ethernet on a FCC on a 8260. Add the
different speed of the CPU's, differend speed of their bus inter-
faces, etc.
It makes a LOT of difference. But then, there is also a price
difference...

If programming was easy, they wouldn't need something as complicated
as a human being to do it, now would they?
