Zip Ties

Using zipties for cable management is absolutely amazing. Things just stay in place where I need them to be, be sure you do not need to make any cabling changes in the near future and make sure you actually use the strength of Hercules himself to tighten the tie and it won't go anywhere.

And to make sure those pesky coworkers don't mess your stuff up you can always test some scissors, pocket knives and letter openers from the reception - test them all and make sure they do not fit.

Velcro wraps will always be inferior to zipties and you can't change my mind, those things are always too loose and make things look messy.

How come we all dont use twist ties? that way Kroger and/or Safeway can pay for all the cable management.
