That's great- my rat's nest is _behind_ the monitor. I do have a pet
rat, and although she has a cage, she prefers to store things behind
the monitor...

So I cleaned up there a bit just now, and checked the cables for
damage. There was no apparant damage to them (for those who don't
know- rats chew everything). They are pulled up above the monitor to
protect them from her, and that _does_ require an extension cable. But
it is a quality cable. I will straighten is out a bit to see if that
helps. Should I take extra care to route it far from AC power cables?

Thanks for the tip.
