Keep in mind the machines you are connecting. If they have 10/100 Ethernet, you might as well take advantage of it and get a 10/100 hub or switch. If they're 10Base-T, and they're the standard Apple Ethernet, they are likely not full-duplex, so I would stick with a 10Base-T hub.
Also keep in mind that a hub can far outlive computers. If you buy a 10/100 hub or switch now, you'll probably have it for years. on 12/5/01 7:27 AM, David Nelson at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > A 10 base T and 10/100 are referring to the speeds of the hub.
