And it doesn't do a retransmission? ;-) Sorry, couldn't resist.

I resemble that remark. (That's a stupid American idiom, in case anyone 
doesn't know.)

Your question was a good one, although the answer should be clear if you 
know basic Ethernet. However, I can see that it might not seem cut and dry.

Here's another wrinkle! What if it's a Cisco cut-through switch? Say the 
switch is switching a frame from port e0 over to e1 and it encounters a 
collision while sending the frame out port e1. Does it retransmit? It's 
cut-through, remember. Does it even still have the frame to retransmit? 
Stay tuned for an answer. I will answer my own question if nobody else 
does. ;-)
