Hello folks,
Hi,
A random conversation on twitter yesterday lead
me to discovering an old 1980s LAN technology called INFAPLUG.
Would you mind sharing link(s) to said conversation? It sounds like one I'd like to
learn from / maybe be part of. This was a
serial LAN hooked up via a PC serial port at 9600 baud to a ?smart plug? the size of a
wall wart. This plug contained all the smarts and hooked into the coax backbone. There
were boards available for VAX amongst other things so I?m amazed I?d never heard of it.
Interesting.
Has anyone else?
I have not.
