Not really, but still somewhat bogus:

[root@grouper vortex]# ./vortex-diag -ee
vortex-diag.c:v2.02 7/1/2000 Donald Becker (becker@scyld.com)

Index #1: Found a 3c556 Laptop Hurricane adapter at 0x1800.
EEPROM contents (64 words):
 0x000: 2978 6056 0040 8060 0040 0000 0000 0080
 0x008: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
 0x010: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 10b7 6356

 0x038: 2970 0009 0000 8643 97c4 0010 0000 00aa
 The word-wide EEPROM checksum is 0xe3f1.
Parsing the EEPROM of a 3Com Vortex/Boomerang:
 3Com Node Address 29:78:60:56:00:40 (used as a unique ID only).
 OEM Station address 00:00:00:00:00:00 (used as the ethernet address).
 Manufacture date (MM/DD/YYYY) 2/0/2000, division , product .
Options: none.
  Vortex format checksum is incorrect (0007 vs. 6356).
  Cyclone format checksum is incorrect (0x95 vs. 0x29).
  Hurricane format checksum is incorrect (0x95 vs. 0x29).
