Awww, I thought you were giving it out...

I could use a few hundred feet, and prices are superhigh here in Canada. Oh well! http://www.hardwarecentral.com/discussion/smile.gif

I picked up 200 feet of CAT 5 cable for $50 bucks a few days ago in New hampshire.
Thats about 25 cents a foot.

UTP or STP? Plenum or Non-Plenum? What Topology are you going to use? Running active or passive? Why I ask?? I'm thinking about the same thing. Good luck!

LOL! You guys crack me the hell up! Beatle, yes she does have a sister, but she's like 16, so you might be out of luck unless you have lotsa money! I needed a good laugh!
