>>We're wondering about upgrading to 100mbit ethernet around the office, I don't care one way or the other unless ODBC will be noticeably faster with the new network cards and connections, has anyone that has made the switch noticed a real 10x increase or is ODBC still a dog no matter how much bandwith you give it?

I agree with what Sonny said, network traffic seems to be key. We made the switch, during the day I havent seen that much of an increase to make up for hassle. But when I get stuck doing late-niters... boy oh boy am I a happy camper!!! Too bad the boss wont let me change my hours ;)
