Lots.  That was the normal mechanism for network attachment prior to the 
NICs being added to the system board.  And at that point, you had to 
have 2 slots to allow for anything else if you were tied to a network, 
and that was the only reasonable expansion mechanism.  I've got 
everything from 486 based to PIII 700 based machines in that 
configuration.  I'd say that they span about 3-4 years or more in age.
