Thanks very much for the reply Jim :)
I'm afraid I now need to ask the dumb, but obvious, question: how do I seperate my network into different subnets? Physical wiring isn't a problem as its a small office and there are wires everywhere anyway, and I'm sure we can scrape together enough to get a few extra switches if needed.

So, is it:
a) Physically seperate the two speeds of the network by a switch (ie. have all the 100mbps devices running off a single switch, like a 100mbps spur off the gigabit network), as per this handy plan I made <snip>

or b) is it anything to do with setting Subnet Masks on the switch(es)?

Thanks again for your time
