Not My Job!

But I'm a "nice guy" and will probably do it.....


The wires involved on a modern desk tend to messy, mainly because of the number and length. A too long cord is usable, a too short cord is not -- thus we end up with many too long cords: power to the CPU, power to the monitor, mouse cable, keyboard cable, monitor cable, LAN cable and telephone cable.

Of that list I am responsible for the telephone wire. The desktop computer with accessories is the domain of Standard Desktop. When it comes to the Desktop I provide LAN connectivity at the jack. The LAN cable is a part of the Desktop. Thus, the mess on the left is not my problem. And while messy it is not a safety issue as the cords are not in a traffic area.

But, being a nice guy, and 'cause Susan is a friend as well as a client, I dug up some 19" pieces of PanDuct. Need to buy some double-stick tape to attach to the desks, but this (on the right) should be ascetically acceptable .

Look who I found! I was checking one of my bookmarked sites, metafilter, and came across a link to this blog with a familiar sounding name.

It's D-Who again!
