    How practical is multi-gigabit ethernet today?

    Dentist recommendation?

    I am wondering if anyone can recommend a good dentist at AZ, preferably in the Peoria. There are so many dental clinics, it's hard to know where to turn, and I know both quality and prince can vary greatly! I'm looking for just general cleaning and care, no major dental work or anything. Thanks
