Which proves what? On a normal cable TX goes to TX, ect. How does that cause smoke? Perhaps if you made your own you could muck it up bad enough to cause damage but we're comparing a x-over and straight through cable not trying to roll our own. So I'll ask again with the aid of the pin out pages, where does the smoke happen? -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
