After that it gets on the big rope to Atlanta.  |

wrap it with foil, you get better shielding from that VGA connector and a better speed. I worked in telcom for a bit, foil does wonders.

Exactly!
Actually where I worked one of the sites was a microwave facility and all the wires were wrapped with foil. I asked why and they said it was due to problems with an FM radio station interfeering. 
So the aluminium tape is even better!
