This kind of stuff can be caused by the net card on the newer machine being
set
to full duplex mode. I'm not sure how to force OS X into half duplex, but for
OS8,9 there is a (unsupported utility) on Apples that will set the mode to
half duplex.
Another cause are switching hubs that have spanning tree, but as they are a
million dollars I doubt thats your issue.
I used to work for Apple education support, we got an aweful lot of calls
concerning new machine/old machine network flakiness. 90% of the time one
of those two was the issue.
Other networking issues, that could come into play:
weird hub/NIC incomabtability
loose cable
poorly wored cable
The third issue, could use further explanation, this doesn't matter much on
your 10mb card,
but 100mb cards have a bad habit of generating noise through induction on
cables not
wired to the spec.
