About the size of a postcard, the LMR Mini Repeaters/Hubs can connect eight nodes or network segments to a backbone or can act as hubs on stand-alone networks for as many as nine users. From Lantronix (Irvine, CA), the units can be cascaded to provide more connections. The four-port models--the LMR-4T, with an AUI port for network connection; the LMR4T-2, with a BNC port; and the LMR5T, with a fifth twisted-pair connector--sell for $175 each. The eight-port models--the LMR8T, with an AUI; the LMR8T-2, with BNC; and the LMR9T, with all twist-ed-pair connectors--cost $250 each.

Flexible C++

My approach to software engineering is far more pragmatic than it
is
theoretical--and no language better exemplifies this than C++.
