Default How to Organize your under-desk Computer Wires

Well, I asked this before and decided to do it the hard/simple way by just taping it to places where it seems good idea. Now - the previouse complained problem "tripping wires with their feet" is solved but now they want to make it look nice down there!


So, what are my choices? I have been searching on internet for 2 days..still couldn't find any nice product that would seem to solve me problem. I am looking for some sort of equipment that would take all the wires and from the computer and from that equipment to rest of computer parts...which might be easy for the eyes to organize or i am open to any ideas or product information that would help me make it look nices and organize the computer wires!

-Help me

Go to an auto parts store and get some wire wrap. Failing that, go to any computer store and pay more for a similar product for computer cables...

This shouldn't bee too hard. The stuff is fairly common. Try here: http://www.milestek.com/frameset.asp?sPage...eManagement.htm

I've bought a bunch of stuff from MilesTek and their prices are usually pretty good. If this doesn't do it for you, search their site (or the web) for terms like "cable management", "wire management", "raceway", "Ducting", etc.

You would think ...some company would have product that would eliminate those wires...or even PC Maker also..how about just one big fat SCSI or some wires that handles all the wires : keyboard/mouse/video/speakers
