Tip of The Week
Have you ever looked inside a computer case and seen all the jumble of wires all over the place? Well, that's where the humble plastic zip tie can make all the difference. I personally organize my computer cables into bundles and tie them up with zip ties. It cleans up the computer a lot and helps improve to airflow in the computer as well.
