I don't think TCP segmentation offload is the same of TCP offload engine, see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_segmentation_offload

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_Offload_Engine

I think TCP Offload Engine is support on WIndows, but not on Linux for
the PE1950 NICs.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
