At A&M in the late 80s and early 90's I set up a very expensive Farallon
rack-mounted hub with plug in cards. And the first card was a localtalk hub
with each computer home-run'd to the hub rather than daisy chained. Later
we added and Ethernet hub and ethernet cards to the machines and a gateway
through ISDN to 'the internet'. Before the web existed we had a local
networks and outside dial-up so I could screen share with any machine using
Timbuktu

Pretty cool for a recording studio... but I ended up as a reluctant IT guy
for a while.
