	Now that the new nexts have 10BaseT wiring standard on
them, perhaps someone could provide a little information on this
standard.  My particular situation has my dorm room equipped with
one school supplied 386 using 10BaseT to talk to a unix server.
If I wanted to install a slab in the room, would it be possible
to just daisy chain the slab to the 386, like I could if I were
using thin-net?  I have heard that 10BaseT uses a hub topology.
Anyone know for sure?
