Subject: Where to buy thinwire Ethernet cabling ?
Organization: NeXT Canada
Date: 23 Jul 92 06:10:12 GMT



Where can you go in Toronto to buy pre-made thinwire
ethernet cabling?

I know you can buy the wire and the parts at radio shack and make your
own with these lame twist-on BNC connectors, but I have yet to build a
*reliable* cable using that stuff.  From now on I just want to buy
premade cables with the ends already on.  Making your own cables
just isn't worth the hassle, especially if you have no good way of
testing the cable.


Incidentally I used to buy terminators at Radio Shack, but
the last time I was there I found out that they've been
discontinued and most of the shops don't stock them any more....

Please reply by email; I'll summarize if there's interest.

Thanks,
Steve

No, it's because we spend all of our time complaining about things in
Usenet articles rather than actually accomplishing anything.

*Some* of us think that the violence in the U.S. society is not irrelevant.
I don't want our society to be just like the U.S., and this is one of
the reasons.  Are you saying that you don't care at all?

And the "United States" doesn't produce the most advanced technology,
individual people and research groups do.  Canada has equally-capable
people.  It is true that there is far more money spent on R&D in the
U.S., but a lot of that is military.  It's arguable that Japan produces
the most advanced products in the *commercial* world.

Please explain "ideas are not chained there".  It's a nice poetic phrase
that could mean almost anything, and thus means almost nothing.

Now are you impling that gov.ca domain does not exist or the

I once used an older version of the system, a BBS thing they had put 
together which not did >not< have full screen cursor addressing, but 
insisted on putting an ascii box around every menu! There was no 'expert'
mode, no short-cuts. You had to use the menus, like it or not. If you 
wanted to go from one section to another, you had to traverse all the 
intermediate menus as well to get to what you wanted.

Plus the ~$25 / hr or so useage charge.

If they'd get a clue, they'd make a new newsgroup can.govtender and 
get some *real* response. ;-)
