I have a shiny new roll-top computer desk that I like a lot.  It really wants
about a 12 foot long (extended length) keyboard cable that can be routed up
around the back of the mac and plugged in.

For reasons that I am sure are honorable ;-| reasons Apple chose to use
connectors on the cable that are the same as telephone handset connectors, 
but to wire the cable up such that it is the reverse of the premade handset
cables.  Several local Apple and other computer stores have told me they
cant help me, that Apple doesnt make a longer cable.  The phone store cant
either.

I have one idea for an incredible kludge that could work, but before I do
that I thought I would ask if anyone else has solved a similar problem.
Someone mentioned they thought a MacUser of some months ago had a solution
in it, but I have been unable to find it.

Thanks for any help.
