yeah. i know what you mean about cables. my speakers (klipsch promedia 2.1's) have a fair amount of cables... along with all the twisted pair running behind the desk, the machine under the bed (486/33, debian box, running as a secure communications server - don't ask), my main box, laptop, etc... too many cables
but i'm looking to get rid of the problem soon... i'd like to keep just my laptop in my bedroom and all the other computers somewhere else... and currently i only have 4 in the bedroom (an old mac, the 486 i just mentioned, the main machine and the laptop, plus the jornada if you count that, which i don't). i've got 2 others out in the den that i'd really like to put near my main box (the pimpintosh and the retro gaming box, which is a k6/2 450 running win2k so i can play worms2 and shit). jenni's imac can sit whereever. but yeah. not enough space. i've got it somewhat straightened up now. just need to clean under the desk and get rid of that old mac. might sell it or something. have a nice monitor for it too. anyway. back to "work"...
