[NCLUG] where to buy cat5 ethernet cable in Fort Collins

I want to network some linux boxes at home, and I'm out of cat5 cable  
(I probably need about 150-200 ft). I used to buy from Fort Collins  
Wintronic on Riverside, but when I try their number, I get a no- 
longer-in-service message. Where's the best local place to get  
inexpensive bulk ethernet cable? Mountain States wants $110 for a  
1000ft spool, and Home Depot wants $58 for their cheapest spool  
(500ft, non-plenum). I think I remember buying a 1000-ft plenum-rated  
spool for about $60 from Wintronic a few years back.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel
