I am interested in acquiring some thinnet transceivers for setting up
small, portable demo nets. There seem to be two similar products on the
market: Milan Technologies' Micro-MAU and St. Clair's SN2400. The specs
look similar:  a small transceiver which connects directly onto the
DB15 thick Ethernet port on a PC or workstation and  has one or two
thinnet (RG58) BNC connectors.

Has anyone had any experience with either of these products?
If anyone's evaluated both, which would you recommend?
