The guy who would handle that for me only uses 6. AND he works for chicken wings!! Once in a while he needs some supporting keyboard parts. Once in a while I need his wiring. We barter!

He is also the guy who helped me troubleshoot my network and realized I had both ends of a cable plugged into the switch. I STILL can't believe I did that! Yeah it was an accident, but I am usually the one who makes people crazy as I triple check all the little details.

My ISP did this without even telling us.
