interesting topologies I should try?  I have plans to do:
 Arcnet, FDDI, Token ring, Localtalk, 10b2, 10b5, 10bT, 10bTX, 10bFiber,

 ATM would be good, and although there's a lot of it
around, you should be
able to pick up a couple of routers fairly cheaply. 
 Acorn Econet?  There's Linux support for that too.
 How about the original DIX Ethernet?  Try a web search
for Aloha. 
Was DIX really the original Ethernet? Wasn't that 10 Mbps and all?
 Sinclair (Timex) machines like the Spectrum and QL used
a proprietary
network, but I think the only other company to ever use it was ICL. 
LUXNET or ABCNET for Luxor machines?
I mentioned Amigalink yesterday, but there is another Amigalink which uses
10b2 cabling on a bus with transceivers which connect to the Amiga diskdrive
port. More info is available at

"LART is an acronym for Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool, and is generally a
piece of heavy hard material such as a cricket or baseball bat, hunk of pipe,
or 2x4 for the fine tuning of a luser's atitude. This is a noun that can be
used as a verb. If I say I lart someone, I mean that I am performing delicate
tuning procedures upon that persons head utilizing a  LART. An ICBM would be
considered an agressive LART."
