Yesterday I was reading the Oct 1 Electronics.  (I'm way behind on my
reading.)  It had an article about a new ethernet hyperchannel router
from Network Systems.  Fully configured ($50K) it will handle 8
ethernets and 2 hyperchannels.  They claim it will handle 10,000
packets per second.  The EN641 is an IP router.  The EN60X is a
bridge.

The same issue of Electronics says AMD has announced a 200 Mbit/sec
FDDI chip set.
