[dorkbotsea-blabber] Motors with limit switches

I need about 20 small motors.  Each of these will need to wind up  
about 15' of cable.  They should each be able to handle about 20 lbs.  
of load.  I'm looking for something with limit switches built in so I  
don't have to come up with a separate scheme for handling that.

Can anyone think of an off-the-shelf motor I could use for this?   
I'll want them all to go up and down in unison, but they should each  
sense independently when they've gone far enough - each way.

I'd thought of winches (overkill) or garage door openers (not quite  
right).

Bonus points for keeping them cheap-ish.

Thanks, pablos.
