If you just want an easy way to stack everything out of the way

Wear a raincoat if you are so inclined :)  Each to his own.  We're
geeks.  We do things for the sake of doing them.  Why do you think
things like OpenBSD exist?  Not all geeks limit themselves to homebrew
software; some have wider interests and skills :)
