    Heh, I've wired the last two houses I've lived in. The current house has about 1200 feet of cat5e in it now. The last house had 2000 feet. The only rooms that don't get wired are the bathrooms. Haven't found a cheap way to make the monitors embedded in the mirrors. #diyethernetwiring

    @barrywoods: I've been looking for the stick on mirror type screen protector material in sheets big enough to cover like a 15" monitor. I think it would be a great 'hidden' info center in the kitchen. #diyethernetwiring

    @JCWhitless: Mirrored plexiglass works the best I think. Just don't have the disposable funds at the moment. #diyethernetwiring

    I can not be the only person that loves the little click ethernet cables make when you plug them in. It's like my lan cable's saying "Boom Yeah I'm home, let's get some STREAMING going here guys!!" #diyethernetwiring

    Or, you could just run the wires across the floor. It ain't pretty but when you don't host many non-nerd types, no one really cares.

    Also, 100 foot Cat6 cables for $21 from Newegg after tax and shipping? Why not? #diyethernetwiring

    @blash: Much easier to order a 3-500 foot kit and make them to order. Saves a lot in the long run. #diyethernetwiring

    @Nowell: Yeah, but I only needed one (college dorm room and all), and being in LA means that Newegg's 3 day shipping is free overnight for me. #diyethernetwiring
