Removing the timer-based "ping" might be a good thing to do from the
point of view of reducing power utilization of laptops (but hey, I
don't have a tg3 in my laptop, so I won't worry about it a whole lot :-), 

You won't have "ASF" in your laptop tg3. ASF, as the second character
it's acronym implies is for "Servers".
