1000 Mbps Switches !
I was wondering how well 2 100Mbit LAN's connected with each other through a 1000Mbit optic fibre cable, use the bandwitdh of the optic cable. If each LAN is connected to the optic cable via a switch that supports a 1000Mbit connection - will this solution be any better than by connecting the 2 LAN with STP cable ? ...

It will only be "better" if you have tons of traffic flowing between networks.
If this is not the case, you won't notice too much of a difference.
Or its probably better said that you won't notice an improvement which would warrant the massive amounts of money you would spend on the upgrade.
