I checked the hardware.  Everything is running 100baseTx-FD (100 mb full
duplex).  I used several different workstations and found the problem.  If I
test with a Windows 98 box I get 500Kb.  If I test with a Windows 2000 box I
get 1Mb, if I test with a Linux box I get 3.5Mb.  Windows must have some
kind of internet throttling.

Yet another reason to use Linux.

Thanks Everyone for your help!
