I NEED more help...

Well... I was talking to someone I work for, about this network I am trying to
put together...

I planned on using Ethernet but she told me that with a llarge database and a
SMALL number of workstations that Token Ring may be a better possibility...
She said it runs a lot more constant pace than 10BaseT. She also mentioned that
with 10BaseT, when more and more workstations are added, it really gets bogged
down YET Token ring will still run at a relatively constant pace..(A slow pace
bbut a constant pace!)

Can someone help me clear this up????


Thanks ,

Luke
