No way, man.  The gold leaf is just fine, no flaking at all, and the
rhinestones are almost all there.  Or are you referring to some kinda
bling that both tha Google and my CCNA self know nothing of?

Well, before, when the USB interface used a 24.x.x.x address and the
ethernet interface used a 12.x.x.x address, USB was quite a bit faster.
But they're both in 24.x.x.x now and run around 2.3 Mbps.  Apparently,
routing for the old IP range was deeply screwed or something.

As it is, I like using USB so my ethernet interface is freed up to
provide a private network.
