I think that he's worried about the look thru his window. ;)
Go get the pre-done ones as ya can get them in any length to suit most setups (I use a 12" one for my HDD/s and an 18" one for the ROM drives) but be warned that ones longer than 18" can cause probs as they are "out of spec" cables. :devil win

I never had a problem with making my own....split them, wrap em with electrical tape, and get a length of wire loom from your local auto parts store....works great, looks better. my 2 cents
Actually, I have a neat little way to do rounded IDE cables w/o cutting them or using electrical tape. All you need is some split loom tubing (can be had at car stores) and <strike>some</strike> a lot of pull ties. Do a W fold on the IDE lengths (do one section at a time) and then slip the tubing over the cable. Now start at one end of the section and work in one direction from their using the pull ties every so often. For the shorter length on the IDE part 2-3 is usually good enough; for the longer section, 5-6 is what you wanna use.
