Since we are on the subject of ancient history, anyone remember ARCnet? I used 
to run an ARCnet network for automated test equipment. Our older Z80 based 
testers ran a dedicated protocol for communicating to a central data collection 
server, and the newer MSDOS based testers ran Novell's LanWorkplace TCP/IP 
stack to do IP over ARCnet.

Packet drivers, ODI shims... fun, fun, fun!
