I have Comcast cable at home where I have seen burst downloads approaching
20Mbps and my AstLinux (on an Alix 2C3 board) handles it just fine.
The issue at 50 or 100Mbps downloads will be the ethernet link. 100Mbps is
the theoretical speed of fast ethernet, in practice throughput is somewhat
less. To get 100Mbps you will need Gigabit Ethernet. Many cheep single
board computers don't have Gigabit Ethernet ports.
