At what point do you need switched ethernet in terms of nodes? This is 
the situation, a building with 7 floors, 40 units per floor, each with 
one 10baseT port in it. Would two or three switched ports per floor be a 
smart option?

Additionally, what are people's recommendations in terms of equipment? 
The only equipment I have experience with so far is Bay Networks, 3Com 
and Asante non-switching hubs. Also, is Ora TCP/IP the best place to 
learn more about arp?
