I need to go study some solid info - I've misinterpreted way too much about
Ethernet cabling.  I have been informed that thin ethernet can't terminate at
a wall jack then connect to a terminator/ethernet card.  (Although someone else
did try it.  Makes me feel better!)

I was avoiding 10baseT due to the expense of the hub (?).  Looks like a much
better option now.

Thanks for the help. More comments are welcome!
