sub 500meter networks

What is the choice (high speed ) network medium  whose longest run is
500 meters.
The choices are:

1.155MBps and above ATM
2. 100 base FL
3. 100 base T (probably wont make the length req.)
4. FDDI
5. HPPI

If trying to select the right vendor of a product is tough enough,
trying to select a certain technology is even harder... especially when
you have competing interests and want to be objective!

I would like to field this as an open ended question to all of you
knowledgeble folk. I will repost a summary of the results after I
recieve a number of replies. 

Thank you in advance .
