   Wow, why waste all those ziplock bags?

   Actually, my wife bought me a three drawer stacking plastic bin 
thingie (approx $12.00), had tiny casters on it, I removed them and 
stuck it in a closet, seems to work OK for me:

Top drawer - All spare cards, screws and card-slot-blanks in a small 
cardboard box.

mid drawer - a jillion or so cables.

Bottom - heavy things, cd-r drives, spare HDD.
