Following up a message from Neil Croft to Will Hargrave:
WH> Although it's 2.5mbits, increasing the speed to 10mbits ethernet won't
WH> give a 4x speed increase, because of the greater efficiency of the
WH> modified token ring protocol Arcnet uses.
NC> Do what I'm doing. Go to 16meg Token ring. =o)
I really hope that was a joke...
NC> Anyone care to work out the theoretical and practical
NC> improvements in performance of 16meg Token Ring over 10base2
NC> Ethernet?
Only until the bills arrive.
