Mine too.  I'm just now looking at putting Gig-e in for my future LTSP 
labs.  Maybe upgrading to Gig-e from the existing LTSP servers to 
their switches.  Then upgrading the switches to have one Gig-e uplink 
port.

The good news for me is that (maybe) Gig-e prices will come down more! 
  I'm sure 10Gig-e is out of the question for me.
