usb cables???

Merry Christmas everyone,
I'm about to take the ccd plunge, and have a question. I have a pier for my (lx200--DSI) 30 feet from my garage. I plan to keep a desk top in the garage as my "data station". Is there a usb cable that length or am I going to have to use some type of signal enhancement? Basically, I have no clue what I'm going to need. I would appreciate any advice.
thanks,
Bob H

You will probably need a couple USB Active Extension Cables.
Here is a review of one.

I do not have the cables a friend does. There is a link at the bottom of the review where he got them from.
