[rescue] The Practical Guide to FDDI

Well, I guess I loose geek points as just yesterday I switched back 
from FDDI to fast ethernet! The reason? Simple, noise. At this point I 
only had 2 machines connected via FDDI (a U1 & U30) and the lanplex 
2500 I was using to connect them to the rest of my network (a Mac, pc, 
and wireless AP) was just way too loud! I replaced the 2500 with a 
cheap linksys 8 port consumer grade switch and my house has gotten 
quiet!

I'm keeping all the bit & pieces of my FDDI network, as I'll probably 
put them back in operation when I can figure out how to get my SC2000 
into this tiny house! (with an SC2000 running the idea of quiet goes 
right out the window!)

It's funny, I have the lanplex 2500 in the living room, and when I shut 
it off I just realized that the HP Deskjet 1200 in my  bedroom makes 
some noise! I never noticed it before!
