About the best prices I've found was Home Depot believe it or not.  The
cable is pretty cheap especially in the pre-packaged spools of 100'+
increments.  Connectors were cheaper for me there than at compusa.  I've
had my crimp tool forever so I don't know the price comparison on those.

Looking to cable my house - have cables running across the floor right now, and it isn't the nicest sight. Would like to drop a LAN cable into each bedroom, the bonus room, kitchen and living room.
