Synapse's 5250 card, hands down. I also have a BOS Native Plus, however if you 
plan to goto win98 anytime soon, it is not working very well.  Netsoft has 
reported that that is one of the cards they have had troubles with in 98, while 
the Synapse card works with Win98 no problems.

It's a great card, plus free (and helpful!) techsupport.
