History of Ethernet

I got into Ethernet installation for my computer business years ago. This was back when it was pretty much all coax, and when one system on the network went down because of a failed adapter or cabling issue, the whole network of computers was down. That was real fun troubleshooting. There wasn't much in the way of troubleshooting tech, before the Internet was a household item, and whatever troubleshooting equipment there was, was EXPENSIVE. Those were the days....
