Tired of paying ridiculous prices for cables for your PC at local computer
stores?  I've found an excellent source I thought I'd pass on to you.  Its
Jameco Electronics, 1355 Shoreway Road, Belmont CA 94002  (415) 592-8097.

Their shielded IBM to Centronics 8' printer cable (IBM-8PC) is only $17.95
(compared to $40-50 for the computer stores) and shielded 6' RS232 cables are
$10.75 (male-male, MMS-2206) and $10.95 (male-female, MFS-2206).  I've seen
these cables priced between $35-$40 at the computer stores.

The cables seem very well made and should be quite durable.  The only catch is
that Jameco has a $20 minimum order requirement.
