Just got another idea at random and wondered if any one had seen/tried it. We all know its a pain in the ass if you have usb in the back of your box. Thats why many of us have some mounted the things in the front. My idea is this...
Why not mound a couple usb on the top of my desk. I could easily plug a device in and out and would cut down on some of this clutter. Infact you could put almost any kind if port you wanted directly in the top of your desk should you so desire.

Any thoughts ?
