[A83] Re: calculator networking - good idea?
A counter/multiplexer is a very good idea. Can you tell me more? Have you
gotten it to work yet?
A token-ring network does not mean wiring in a cirular structure. Wiring
for a token-ring network can use something like a hub. What the ring is,
though, is a system where the privelidge of sending data cycles around the
"ring" of devices, by a signal in the network bus. This is much like what
you're doing.

About the networking...I'm working on such a project in school. It's based
around a counter and a multiplexer where four calculators take turns in
sending/receiving. Seemed to be the most convenient solution to me.
I also thought about the token-ring model. But i left the idea because i
couldn't think of a way to synchronize the sending when you only have on
wire between each calculator.
