RTL8139-based NICs are dubbed "crab cards" in Taiwan, alluding to the crab-like appearance of the Realtek logo. Presently the ALC850 and RTL8139 are particular OEM favorites, offering low prices, and basic feature sets. The most notable Realtek products are 10/100M Ethernet controllers, with a global market share of 70% as of 2003, and AC97 audio codecs, where Realtek's market share is 50%, primarily concentrated in the integrated OEM on-board audio market segment. Those devices categorized as Realtek’s computer peripheral and multimedia IC products consist of the traditional AC97 audio codecs, the High Definition audio codecs, card reader controllers, clock generators, IEEE 1394 ICs, and LCD controllers.
