I'm not discounting other technologies, I was merely pointing out that
Ethernet is not necessarily faster than Token Ring. I did some additional
checking around and found that 100 Mbit TR is still typically faster than
100 Mbit Ethernet (switched, of course since 100 Mbit TR is a switched fdx
technology).
Of course I haven't seen very many implementations of fddi, to be honest.
Token Ring I've seen plenty of!

So technically I was right :-) If one needs speed he considers something
like FDDI, not TR.
