Speaking of rats nests... My QS has the same problem with the CC tubes illuminating the mess of wires in the back. The next time I take photos I'll unplug everything but the powercord and it should make a much better photo.

You can hide that somewhat. I use tie-wrapped to coil up excess wire.
I find the power strips are the worst for unsightly wires. I screw mine into the wall or the bottom of a table to get them hidden. Then tie-wraps can at least get rid of the excess. A few neat wires are ok. If you can secure the loose stuff it will look a lot better. I'd keep the light though--way cool. Where do you get those components?
Where can I find this lights and how to install them inside a Mac Pro ?? I saw ppl posting G5 but G5 structure is different from the Mac Pro, So how do you get those lights inside you Mac Pro Tower?
Plz provide with links : to get those lights !! =)
check ebay for "cold cathode" You'll get what you need. Be sure to check the lengths. You'll need to get a converter too, preferably with a power switch.
