Not really, given wasted bandwidth due to collisions and other issues.
The best case scenario (only two machines for instance) yields a
statisticall 70% utilization or 7 megabits or .875 MegaBytes. Usually is
less than that, be happy with 60%. By the way this applies to any
collision detection ethernet protocol so the same with 10BaseT and
100BaseT although if you are switching at the hub you are going to be a
bit more efficient.
