I have a bunch of tower PCs I'm getting ready to put out, and I'm looking for something to make the wires coming out the back a little harder to tamper with and look a little nicer — something like a cheap wire cage that will be attached via the thumb screws.
I've been doing my own searching, but I can't find anything. It occurs to me that perhaps I just don't know the right keywords to use (which takes this beyond a shopping recommendation), and so I'm asking here if anyone can point me in the right direction.
I'm looking more here for aethetics — any tamper resistance is just a bonus.

Maybe you're looking for 'cable management'? – Shinrai – 2010-12-09T18:05:03.177
@Shinrai - not really, and solutions there tend to focus more on either server racks or internal cable arrangements anyway. – Joel Coehoorn – 2010-12-09T18:56:50.910
@Joel - Agreed that that is the usual concern, but it's really the same regardless of where it is. I don't know of another name for it, and that's usually how I see velcro strapping, desk-attached cable brackets, etc sold. (I am unfamiliar with a product like you're thinking about, that seems potentially problematic though.) – Shinrai – 2010-12-09T19:03:35.190
" wire cage that will be attached via the thumb screws."....Maybe you should invent one and make millions selling them, I have never seen these except for a few select models of Dells, nothing for the after market. Necessity if the mother of invention! – Moab – 2010-12-10T03:17:45.877
@Moab - haha, if only – Joel Coehoorn – 2010-12-10T04:42:41.607
By definition an entrepreneur is someone who see's what no one else does. Run with it man! – Moab – 2010-12-10T16:30:18.073
