            Woah! most small business come no where near maxing 100mb to the desktop. I think people are confusing the improvements from better switches and more switching throughput with increase from going from 100mb to 1000mb. http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/913053-wow-gigabit-networking-is-a-big-improvement-for-microbusiness

              @thecreativeone91 As someone at the breaking point of 100mbit, I sure as hell wouldn't be deploying it for anyone with gig so cheap. If you inherit some legacy junk, yeah, 100 will get you going at least. We run backups over it - this is where the pain begins.

                Wouldn't deploy it. but attributing upgrading to gigabit everywhere improving the network is wrong. Server likely. but otherwise I'd say you just had bad switches.

                  @thecreativeone91 or some other horrific networking faux-pas. You're right, 100 gets the job done for clients still.

                      This kind of stuff is part of the reason I've been thinking about ditching IT and going to electrical engineering. Most companies don't understand IT nor do they care to. and a lot of IT folks don't either. It's this crazy madness of wrong solutions for most problems and not truly understanding what they are doing.

                          They've been calling my cell phone the best week. I'm not even sure how they got my cell. I have a suspicion that a former employer is given all these sales people who keep calling them my cell phone to annoy me.

                            When your problem is with stupidity / ignorance / people, changing careers won't fix it. I've seen some cringe worthy stuff doing electronics eng, and that's all low voltage reasonably safe stuff.

                              Heck ever look in a Non-branded USB Charger/ SMPS that people use on their phones.. some scary stuff. little seperation between High/low voltage. Lots of leak (50-60v) from AC to the DC side. etc some don't even have over current protection.
