Er ... no. I've never seen a 100Mbps ethernet switch that doesn't do
full duplex; whilst they probably exist they are pretty rare. And most
100Mbps interface cards are full duplex. If you see collisions on an
system interface, you've almost certainly got a negotiation problem.

Yes I'm nit-picking, but it's worth pointing out in case someone has a
negotiation problem and ignores it because "with Ethernet you get
collisions".
