Agreed. First thing I looked for in the traces. No collisions, very little 
traffic. This is a network with all of 3 computers. 1 Xp, 1 Mdk 9.1 and 1 ME. 
Well the firewall if that counts, but the arps and bdcasts are at a nominal 
amount. I realize that at Hafl Duplex, I'm not going to see HUGE speeds, but 
roughly 10-20mb a minute is nuts! I would love to hear if anyone is really 
seeing good speeds from XP to Linux at better than 2mb a sec. ?? It looks 
during my research today that SP1 for XP actually causes more problems than 
it solves in some cases.
