$7? Bend over while you're at it.

I have a catalog at work from which I get them for about $1.00 each in
q100...with the nice long thumbscrews. Pinning them out sucks. I've done
about 200 of them so far. They also make really convenient serial cables,
as you can make any length you desire in minutes.

ObPortmaster. I keep one of the screwed onto S0/C0 on my Portmaster, and
have a few null wired ones floating around. When I want console on my PM,
I just hook a null to my serial port, and plug in the rj45.
