I had no idea that Token Ring was inefficient with power, but it certainly had a bunch of other problems. Biggest (at least on PCs) was its inability to recover from a cable being unplugged without resetting a bunch of the system, and the type-1 token ring cables win the award for being the most needlessly bulky,[1] even if the connectors had a plug-into-each-other party trick.
