Agony?? Considering the alternatives to compare it to at the time

No, the AUI was the standard DA-15 to the 10Base5 transceiver; forgive
my clumsy response.
Yes, I know that's obvious, but there are probably few who remember the
agony of thicknet.
There was at least one vendor (Artisoft, I think)
that terminated
their thicknet coax in 15-pin AUI connectors.?? Never could figure out
the reason for that--it seemed like a very awkward setup.
The /coax/ was terminated in a 15-pin AUI connector?
Or the machine facing connector on the tap was 15-pin AUI?
