Where I come from, GigE is something that is still only used in
research labs at Lucent etc., 100mbit is only for links to servers and

"Hmm, is this code resulting in the correct flow of packets? Yes. OK,

Ethereal than command line tools I suppose

Oh and people *HATE* the command line... I don't understand why,
