Brooklyn, NY | Speaking of Token Ring
We STILL have a token ring network in the building where I work in downtown NYC (at a Fortune 100 Company). I have a Madge 4/16 card plugged into my laptop right now. |

My office ditched token ring rather recently, so there's still some spare hardware around. Most of the older PCs still have the Madge cards. Once $300, they're now worthless. Madge, BTW, went out of business a couple of years ago. |

Token, token, who's got the token? (Only funny to those of us who know how frames get distributed on a TR net  )
Shout-outs to my oldskool niggaz ARCNET and HPIB (still used apparently!).
