Yes sir,

In the early days of networking, I had to install and support a WIDE variety
of networks and
physical media (and a few different file server OS - but largely Novell !!)

In addition to the original Token Ring 4 Mbps and Thick and Thin Ethernet
(10-Base-5 and 10-Base-2)
Altos Server and original 3com Net (Thinnet based)
Novell's S-Net
Proteon's 4-Net and 10-Net (10 Mbps 10-Net was not adopted - later IBM 16
Mbps was)
G-Net ( 1 Mbps)
Omninet (for Apple II)
ARCnet Token-passing (PC and old Datapoint 8-bit processor version)
Sytek / IBM PC Network (used 75 ohm CATV cabling)
Appletalk for Macs
AT&T StarNet (another 1 Mbps)

and others from Novell lab classes when Ray Noorda showed up and signed your
certificate!

Today, the company I work for is owned by the US patent holder for Token
Ring

.... who said the world is small?
