Seeing the Too Many Cables topic got me thinking. How many people have a crazy home network setup?

That was one of the key points in butying my house last year. My wife was wondering "Where can we put the couch" And Im "Ok the Pc can go here, close to the cable outlet, run Cat5 back through the wall etc...) <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
