Well, when the 3/60 was popular, a shared 10Mbps network for a whole
building was pretty much the norm. I guess some people stuck bridges
between servers and desktops, or between departments, but certainly
there were a lot of companies 10 years ago who had a couple hundred people
on a shared network. 
 
Not that it was pretty...look up "ethernet meltdown" in the Hacker's Dictionary.
