No no way should you get 1gb or more; the ethernet in them is 10 Mb/s. Moreover the speed of opening pages is dependent on the speed of your Internet connection. If they're going through a wireless, that's not going to be very fast.
A newer system will get you improved general performance, but not necessarily faster web browsing.
Bruce,
That's very true, but even with wireless, the "weak link" in the chain isn't the wireless, it's still the Internet connection, for wireless is faster than even broadband.
