Coworker went looking for a MMJ crimper the other day; cheapest we could
find was $180 out of the Blackbox catalog.  The die may be $30, but what
about the crimper the die has to go in?

You must be the odd man out; I have maybe 2-3 adapters, maybe 3 "real"
MMJ cables - so they're "saved" for using on real DEC equipment where
I have no other option.  I can buy MMJ heads locally, but not the crimpers,
either.. so the last time I needed an MMJ cable I had to pay $6-8/each
to Blackbox.

I missed out on the last "box of MMJ adapters" I saw on ebay. 8-(
