It would be nice if gig-Ethernet was avaliable on all PCs especially the XPS line considering its geared towards gaming.

Newer and newer applications use more and more bandwidth especially dealing with GIS systems. I am not referring to connection to outside my LAN. It makes file copying easy especially if you are using a NAS. There are lots of benefits to having a fast connection and the cost is very minimal.

Another thing to consider is the amount of users that stream media across their home networks to use devices such as Media Extenders, and DVD quality movies are around 3-6 gigs.

So long as the power management is decent and the PHY is turned off when there's no link, so I can keep my long battery life, then I'm all in agreement.
