Your New Computer Doesn't Do You Much Good Without All the Right Cables and Accessories
Setting up a home office can be a hassle. Think of all the things you need! Setting up your computer workspace for comfort, ergonomics, efficiency and high performance takes time. Time is one thing that is in short supply these days. How often do you want to go back to your computer retailer anyway?

Introducing Monster's Computer Starter Kit: All You Need to Get Your Computer Up and Running
We have put together a selection of products that Noel Lee, the Head Monster himself, uses for his own Monsterous computer system. With Monster's Computer Starter Kit, you can get Monster quality all in one package. With our value kit, you'll save money, and some trees, as well!

Monster Computer PowerCenter PC800
The Monster Computer PowerCenter is much more than a surge protector. Most of us have heard about the need for a high quality surge protector to protect the computer's sensitive processors against spikes and AC line irregularities. And if you live in a high surge or lightning prone area, a high quality surge protector will save your computer from damage if lightning even hit a power or telephone line near your home. Monster's 1665 joule rating and fast acting Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) will take the hit and save your computer in case of such an event. Monster's PC800 also features a phone/modem connection to protect your Internet connection to your computer. That's Monster Protection! That's Monster Convenience, too. Our unique color coding system ensures that you don't accidentally unplug the wrong thing, and that you'll always know which components are plugged where. Three wide spaced adapter outlets let you easily plug those bulky AC adapters for your Zip drive, or other peripherals. And, of course, all of the connections, including the right angle plug, are 24k gold plated for corrosion resistance and high quality.

Monster Computer IEEE 1284 Printer Cable
Monster's IEEE 1284 printer cable features XLN Xtra Low Noise construction with double shielding of high density copper braid plus foil. This provides superior rejection of outside interference, so your data transfers quickly (up to 16 megabits per second). Oversized thumbscrews allow for quick, easy attachment, and the large printer icon on the cable connector lets you easily identify your cables for quick, no-hassle hookup.

Monster Internet Phone/Modem Cable
Today's modems send high speed signals that are sensitive to interference. The parallel construction of a regular telephone wire acts like an antenna, attracting interference that may come from AC lines and CPUs. Monster Internet, our award-winning high-speed cable, is designed to reject RF and EM noise that might interfere with data transfer, maximizing your Internet connection. Plus, Monster Internet has an extended tab (and cover), so you won't have to fight with it when you want to disconnect it from the wall or accidentally snag it or break it off.

Monster's Ergonomic Mousepad and Keyboard Pad
Each year, thousands of computer users suffer repetitive stress injuries. Repetitive stress targets the more delicate muscles of the hand, and particularly the wrist. If not treated, the condition can progress, until keyboard use becomes impossible. The use of keyboard pads and mouse pads with wrist supports can minimize the risk that a computer user will develop this syndrome. Why place your wrist at an uncomfortable angle or on a hard, cold desk surface? Monster's mouse pad, with an ErgoSoft wrist rest, places your wrist at an ergonomic angle, ideal for those long hours of "drag and click." With Monster's ErgoSoft keyboard pad, whether you type a little or a lot, your wrists will be more comfortable, for longer periods of time. You can be more productive and help avoid computer-related problems such as repetitive stress. For power users and number crunchers, the ErgoSoft keyboard pad is a perfect full-sized fit for extended keyboards.

Organize Your Computer Area
Power users have a hard time keeping organized. The Computer Startup Kit's CD/Diskette Storage Tray provides a neat, organized way to store disks safely, instead of having them end up unprotected in a pile on your desk. We've even thrown in a few floppies to get you started, in case you forgot to purchase some.

Clean Up That Cable Jungle
Nothing looks worse than a rat's nest of cable on and behind your desk. Monster's color-coded Velcro cable management straps make cable jungles a thing of the past. You can wrap up any extra cable length and keep it neat and organized with your own color coding cable system.

Keeping Things Nice and New
Computers attract dust and dirt like a magnet. Computer monitors especially attract dust, and keyboards are plagued by dust and various other tiny particles. The Head Monster uses our cleaning wipes and dust removal air canister, and you'll find it handy too. These Monster products provide easy cleanup and maintenance. They also help clean up your work area!

Saving Time and Money With the Monster Computer Starter Kit
Everything you need to get your system up and running is right here in this box. Is this ultra-convenient, one-stop shopping or what?! Whether you're a power user like The Head Monster, or are just getting started with your first computer, Monster's Computer Starter Kit will help you get the most out of your computer and your time.
