[KAT5] Newbie overload!

Greetings from Arlington, VA USA

I'm having a new townhouse built, and for the longest time I have
been trying to figure out what to do about wiring the place.

Before I found this group and "discovered" that you can send lots
of
other stuff over Cat5, I ordered a bunch of "2x2" wiring from
every
room in the house, leading to a central location (my garage).

The 2x2 bundle consists of 2 coax cables, and 2 cat 5 cables.

I've been trying to read up and figure out the "best" setup for
my
place, but I'm drowning in too much information.

Do most Kat5 users get away with having just one cat 5 cable?  How
many of you wish you had an "extra" cat 5 cable and why?

Thanks!

-Mike

P.S.  Any US kat5 users in here?
