You cannot blame the Linksys 10/100 router switch.
All I did was swap out identical hard drives. It was the same machine with a 10/100 NIC. I figure the downloads are the same because the WAN doesn't come anywhere near the card speed. However the LAN was a different story.

Even Firefox ran faster on Windows than linux with the same build #. Download was the same but launching and surfing was faster. Identical setup too. OO launched faster hot or cold on Windows than linux. This was with Ubuntu even after it was tweaked with BUM. I don't hate it, I just a little more object than most. If left OEM install, Win2k came in 1st then Ubuntu then WinXP. XP was pretty spongey on the GUI and I had to go to the classic shell.
