From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   100BaseVG
  
      A 100 {MBps} {Ethernet} standard specified to run
      over four pairs of {category 3} {UTP} wires (known as voice
      grade, hence the "VG").   It is also called 100VG-AnyLAN
      because it was defined to carry both {Ethernet} and {token
      ring} {frame} types.
  
      100BaseVG was originally proposed by {Hewlett-Packard},
      ratified by the {ISO} in 1995 and practically extinct by 1998.
  
      100BaseVG started in the IEEE 802.3u committee as {Fast
      Ethernet}.   One faction wanted to keep {CSMA/CD} in order to
      keep it pure Ethernet, even though the {collision domain}
      problem limited the distances to one tenth that of {10baseT}.
      Another faction wanted to change to a polling architecture
      from the hub (they called it "demand priority") in order to
      maintain the 10baseT distances, and also to make it a
      {deterministic} {protocol}.   The CSMA/CD crowd said, "This is
      802.3 -- the Ethernet committee.   If you guys want to make a
      different protocol, form your own committee".   The IEEE 802.12
      committee was thus formed and standardized 100BaseVG.   The
      rest is history.

      Software for {MS-DOS} or {Microsoft
      Windows} which originally ran on the 16-bit {Intel 8088} and
      {80286} {microprocessors}.   These used a {segmented address
      space} to extend the range of addresses from what is possible
      with just a 16-bit address.   Programs with more than 64
      kilobytes of code or data therefore had to waste time
      switching between {segments}.   Furthermore, programming with
      segments is more involved than programming in a {flat address
      space}, giving rise to {warts} like {memory models} in {C} and
