I have a crimping tool and a large
bag of connects that I'd be willing
to donate. Cat5 I think.  If that is
of interest, someone let me know.

I'll also mention that CyberGuys has
very good prices on cables, but their
S&H sucks.  Something like $10, no
matter how little you buy.

But also almost no matter how
much you buy.  If anyone wants to
combine an order, that would be
something to think about. Cables
are a major ripoff most places.
