I have a card from CDL, which you can look up on their website at 
http://cdlnz.com and put 'AOC-SATA150' in the search keyword box.  
Unfortunately, CDL are not going to be a lot of use unless you have a 
trade account with them.

Running under Debian Lenny, on a PII-400 - works fine - no special magic 
required (beyond dealing with the way the sata subsystem likes to 
randomly assign drive 'letters', much like USB).  It is good to have a 
fast disk interface to match the awesome power of my Pentium II.
