"Hi, my name is Pete D'Alessandro. I'm here with Expert Village. Some of the other things I can do with the wiring - take a little device like this, these two guys are going to the same place. I'll just wrap this up, it neatens the cord. I could use a cable tie to do the same thing, but a cable tie's going to be a little permanent. I'm going to have to go back and cut it if I really want to undo it at any point. So this is a more temporary alternative. Another alternative is a cord case, which really just jams inside, eventually. It'll hold everything. It will hold 4 or 5 different cables, make them look like one. It doesn't sound like it does that much, but it really, really looks nicer, as you'll see in the after. As we can jam that in, it's going to get a lot nicer, a lot cleaner. We can get 4 or 5 cables together this way. They're all more or less going to the same place, which is like our monitor, our keyboard, our mouse -all those cables essentially run from point A to point B, the same one. We can funnel them, bind them all up in this, and they're wrapped up forever, we never have to see them again. This is what it looks like after we're done. You can see the cords are all neatened up. Everything is gone, it's invisible. Nothing's underfoot, literally or figuratively. It's not in your way. It's not going to bother you anymore."
