The 100BaseT cards and hubs are twice as costly as the 10 MBps
ones !! The upgrade path is tortuous in that u may have to change
the NICs and hub. Test out everything and ask ur dealer to
give u both the 100 and 10 MBps NICs and hubs before deciding.
Once again; full duplex, auto negotiation gives u good throughput.
Care should be taken to have a good ground line across everything.
