Of course they already have, actually. gigabit ethernet borrows a lot from fibre channel it seems, which i think can only improve ethernet. if you are thinking about gigabit ethernet, here is my experience: alteon NICs are bad, foundry networks and extreme networks switches are very good. i have yet to test any bay networks gigabit ethernet stuff but i was unimpressed by their accelar product at 100Mb. cisco, of course, isn't even in the race yet. ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
