- I know I ask this question every couple of months (And the silence is deafening)
- BUT - Does anyone out there remember IBM's cluster network, and if so, do they
- have any technical/programming type information about it ?
-
- This network was developed before IBM's `Original' PC Network adapter.
- As far as I can make out - It's a 256Kbs bus network, 75Ohm coax, a type
- of slow ethernet ???
-
- Due to budgetry constraints, the 50 terminals I have on this network have to
- survive just that bit longer. (Oh for a Packet Driver for the cluster card !)
-
- Can anyone help ?
