That is like perfect man.

I am going to have to snap some pics of the sideshow of a setup I have kicking at home.

Every day that it does not burst into flames and torch me in my sleep is a miracle.

well actually for some reason it looks pretty much ok on those pics but if you saw it yourself… it’s a mess… it’s like… totally “What is this? … wher did this come from? What in the world does this go to?”

Your links aren’t working but I’m imagining that it looks like a mess. Just the thought of it is making me uncomfortable. I’m a neat freak when it comes to my desk. All my cords must be tidy, with slacks nicely coiled and twisty-tied.

I’m definately not a neat freak, but I can’t stand having anything on the desk touching my mouse/mouse-pad/keyboard… it drives me nuts! I have to clean off my desk like every other day, or I get all agrivated, and testy. I don’t nesecarily “clean” it, per say… I just take all the crap people have piled up on my desk and shove it in one of the shelves. Mission Complete. Even with that, I don’t have much of a mess as far as cables are concerned, that’s what large furniture is for: putting in front of messes!

I had 2 main surger protectors coming out of it and then a crap load of other extension cords into those and extension cords and everything, it was ugly, and really dangerous.  
Everything is fine now though, I fixed everything up real good.

I also like to have cordless whenever possible. It reduces the cord overload.
