For the record, I just tried full duplex on my new UTP network and the
"collisions" light just flashed a lot when it was used.

I changed 2 of the 5 connected machines to full duplex.

Non duplex -> Non duplex - normal, as expected.
Duplex -> Non duplex - more collisions, slight lowering of data rate.
Duplex -> Duplex - Collisions by the bucketload, very slow data transfer.
