Home depot has a nice assorted container of them otherwise in the same section you should find them in gross packages in various lengths. I prefer the black zip ties in a medium length. If you go to Home Depot look for another valuable widget called Cable Cuffs, there orange and close down with a handcuff like ratchet and come in 3 or 4 sizes. Great for cable management behind the computer and around the house... believe me there very handy and you will go back for more! lol | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number A blend of brains, brawn and dumb luck, ask me about rig #2 !

There's a nice assortment here: Cable Management Cable Computer Management Cable Management Network Wire and Cable Management Cable Management Product Organizer-Best Computer Online Store Houston Buy Discount Prices Texas-Directron.com (not saying you have to buy there) If you have a decent PC/electronics repair shop locally they would have them.
I like the spiral type it has a neater look.

Thanks for the link. Directron is where I had planned to buy them.

It is a small world....Is Christmas coming soon? Glad I could help bigmck.
If you do get the spirals watch, they can be a little tricky to start, but once you reach where you want to go just snip off the excess. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Gateway DX4831e (Mid-Tower Desktop) OS Win 7 Home Premium 64bit Ver 6.1.7600 Build 7601 - SP1 CPU Intel i3 530 2.93GHz, 2933MHz 2 Cores 4 Logical Processors Motherboard Gateway H57M01 133 megahertz Memory 6GB of 1,333MHz DDR3 SDRAM Graphics Card 32MB Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD IGChip Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Gateway HX2000 20inch TFT active matrix TN Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 x 59 hertz Keyboard MS 'Natural' Standard PS/2 Enhanced 101-102 Key Mouse Gateway USB wired optical PSU 300watts.
