Anyone out there other than me old enough to have run a 10base2 network in their home? My first computers 2 computers when I was in high school I connected together with a 10base2 with 50 ohm terminators and all that. My mom wasnt happy as I literally knocked a hole in her wall without asking her.

This was back when the internet was still fairly new so you would get on with 1200 baud modems to a BBS that would give you a piggyback onto the internet which you might be lucky to get access to for 30 - 60 minutes a day.

10base2 network card attached for prosperity.

My first network at home :-) Was a gift from someone I helped.
