Logical topology using a switch?
I think I get that a Hub and WAP continue to use logical bus topologies because every device shares the same bandwidth and adheres to CSMA/CD, but how would I think of the logical topology of a network employing a switch? Would it be point-to-point? Or should I still think of it as a logical bus that has point-to-point features using ASICs to map out the MAC address/port relation?

It is slightly confused but it is basically still a bus, when viewed from the higher protocol layers at least. It can't be considered a point-to-point link because multiple devices are connected via the same link.
