This talk of 10b2 reminded me of something.
I've got an arcserve hub, some cables (laying in my driveway),
and about a 1/2 dozen arcserve cards in some old 5150's.
I have absolutely no use or software for them.
Free for the shipping (from California).
Is this the same as Arcnet? I would like to get my Tandy6000s networked
up and I know you can get Arcnet cards, although I've heard that the
interoperability between them and PC based arcnet cards leaves something to
be desired.
My faw-paw.
Yes, it is Arcnet. Arcserve is the backup software by Cheyenne.
first hit out of altavista searching on arcnet:

ARCnet is a Token Passing Bus, much but not exactly
like IEEE802.4. It was
originally developed by Datapoint Corporation
in 1977 as a hard disk interface but later used for
LAN. DataPoint,
Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMC) and Pure
Data are (were) the main players in the field.
