I really quite like these
Fun little clips to identify your cables, reusable cable-ties with space for an identifier and carrying cases for wrapped-up cables.
Cabletastic.
I suppose stickers and cable-ties are cheaper - but not as much fun.

It was
by Mark at Metal Guru in Stockton-on-Tees.
He's WELL worth travelling for, I'm pretty used to piercing and tattoo shops and I've never met anyone else so dedicated to giving GOOD work, or so obsessed with keeping clean and sterile.
All handtapped with just a needle and ink, no machine. Was the most peaceful and painless tattoo I've ever had [and i have quite a few!] And was totally healed within 3 days. If you can find someone who can do it, i'd definitely recommend trying one put in by hand.

Nice idea
But they really are far too expensive.
The one place I could imagine using them in our office is the patch rack, and for that we're talking 250 cables to be labeled at each end. Trouble is then you're talking about $2 to label each cable and when the cables you're labeling only cost a quid each it's bloody difficult to justify.

not really worth it for the money - but they look pretty fun!

when you're giving your PC a reacharound
coloured, illuminated cables are much more practical
