Re: Us old timers have seen it all ... Which coax? 
The thick one with the vampire taps, or the daisy-chained cheapernet? |

Lake Arrowhead, CA | He says 10B2, which was the Thinnet which used BNC connectors prevailingly.
It was 10B5 that used the thick cables that required vampire taps. |

Smithfield, NC | Ah, the Yellow Garden Hose! I've only ever seen that at a university. I had thinnet myself though, hooked up to play multiplayer Doom II ... fun days. |
