100Mb ethernet is too slow.

I guess I'll be upgrading the rest of my LAN to 1Gb Ethernet. My data is
just getting too large to archive easily over 100Mb connections.

It's a far way we've come from watching 300 baud transfers across the
screen in the BBS days.

I have been considering that for a while too. I have fibre between the
switches, but only 100MB from there to the desktop.

The only real demotivator in this process is that, until I actually get
around to getting my CCNA, I keep convincing myself to keep the Cisco
stuff in place (I got a good deal on some Cisco gear a couple of years
back from a company liquidating their assets, and unless that happens
again, no more Cisco for the house).
