lol cat cables are internet/networking cables

cat-6 (category 6) just means there is 6 wires inside, cat-5 is more common though.

8 wires... there are 8 wires in any network cable. Cat 6 just means it has better shielding than cat 5 or 5e & can be run over longer lengths.

Awesome... the Beige ones with Compaq in red on the front door? Also the ones that require 1200 different types of star screw driver heads to assemble? I remember them :lol:

Picked it up from a auction in Canberra for 50 bucks. Even has the vented doors. I might even be able to find the original keys if my 2yo hasn't eaten them :D

I remember trying to get into one of these buggers after losing the keys... Angle grinder and crowbar material.
