Don't worry about ThickNet, just pick up a couple of spare
   10bT or 10b2
tranceivers for the odd box with an AUI port. 
 That's definitely the way to go. 
 
Of course, I have 800 feet of cat5 run through my house and even out to the
garage to network.  My curiosities extend beyond practicalities, though. :)
I want to run those other nets _because_ I can, not because it's efficient. :)
