• AN inexpensive way to deal with some of those out of control power and computer cords on your desk -- use Velcro plant ties to separate and wrap the cords. You can even use the Velcro to anchor them to the desk (or whatever you want). I also use pieces of Velcro to wrap hoses and power cords in the garage. If you buy Velcro in the office section you pay big bucks but you can get a 45' roll of ½" Velcro plant ties for about $4 -- maybe less. Good stuff -- relatively inexpensive.
