3) There's no reason to make all the cables the same length. The extra delay is on the order of nanoseconds - not something you'll ever notice and probably countered by other parasitic effects anyway. It's true that there is an RC time constant that changes with length, but really all of those effects are just inconsequential. Use lengths that minimize your wiring; it'll get messy. (Scott suggests that "If you're going to make them all the same length, you'd better sneeze equally on all of them.")
