You will see 0% improvement in internet access speed.  However, moving 
your entire internal network to 100mbps makes things like network 
storage a convenience, and 1000mbps makes it transparent.

Half a decade ago I upgraded everything to 100mbps and it became 
possible for me to edit video over the network (DV, which is 3.125MB/s, 
easily within the realm of 100mbps).  That really helped my workflow, as 
I could put all my crap in one place but edit any project from any 
machine I wanted.
