Does anyone have advice on cable management and just general tips on fighting dust? I have an absolute mess of cables and adapters with cobwebs and dust all in-between and I can't exactly lift everything up to hoover/vacuum it.

Under my desk and behind my desk is a nightmare. Same with my TV.

Zip ties, a bit of thinking and/or a basket for cables hanging under the desk.

You goddamn cretins just don't appreciate the craftsmanship that went into that artisanal laminated particle board box.

Yeah. Every piece of particle board carries a little piece of the orphan that made it. Respect the sacrifice of the orphans.

I'm looking forward so hard to the 34" 21:9 from Dell whenever they release it... I like my EA294WMi but I would like more pixels at times.

One day someone will sell a 21:9 1440p with G-Sync, and then life will be good.

Does anyone have any recommendations for classy and/or minimalist desk speaker stands? I have a pair of AV40's that I love to stick on some sort of platform to class it up a bit.

I'm 29. I'd never heard of a tv having a remote until we bought one in the early 90s. That being said Australia was pretty backwards and the first colour broadcast didn't happen till 1975.

Just wait till you get LCD tvs.

Not sure where else to post this, but I'm in a situation where I have to route wiring across the back of my desk which is against a wall. How do I make this not look like poo poo? Cable ties helped a little but I can still see the cables and it's annoying me :reject:
