Yes. There's a local scrapyard that pays by the pound for scrap cable. With insulation still on, it's not very much, but it's better than nothing. It's been a while, but I think it's something like 40 cents/pound. This will doubtless vary considerably by region and luck. > Some of these small offices had 22 CAT5 runs in them! I'll see your CAT5 and raise you CAT3, thinnet, 25-, 50-, and 100-pair telco cables, lamp cord, Twinax, serial, DECNET, and crap I can't even identify. The joys of working in a 100 year old building. FYI: 100-pair cable is frelling heavy, and difficult to cut. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
