>  Starlan (not really in the running)

HP is selling some "Starlan-10" equipment, which is 10Mbit Starlan.
In particular, there is a Starlan-10 to Ethernet bridge (HP 28647A).
I expect that the engineers looked at the RFI aspects, since HP seems
to be pretty careful about standards.  Other equipment from that
division (Roseville Networks) has been very reliable, so I expect the
bridge to be solid.  We do use the 28645A ThinLAN Hub (a five-way
repeater with one thick tap and four BNC's) all over the place.

I expect that you can get proper information about these from an HP
sales office.
