Helpful Hints:

1. Buy cable ducting. It is a godsend. Or even just cable ties. Having all
your cables nicely bundled as one thick cord does wonders.

2. Label your different connectors. :) A piece of tape with a markered label
takes 5 seconds to doahead of time, but if you are like me and constantly
back on the floor having to plug this into that, it saves a lot of headaches
instead of "ok, I jiggle this wire from the top of the desk... Which one
down here where I am moves?"
