   Well, more than anything it's just a conformity thing. I already had two   
   of the ALS Genesis storage bins, I now have four....they all look the   
   same, they all carry the carts and manuals. Adding in some tape racks   
   would just throw it all off.   
      
   Now, in terms of just using that for a while until I got something else:   
   I have the cardboard boxes: They're free and already in use. So, going   
   out and trying to hunt down some tape cases that would kind of work for   
   a while just isn't too high on my list...but you do make some good   
   points below:

   That's a good point...and I guess I can try to keep my eyes open when   
   I'm out and about at various Thrift, Pawn and Gaming shops...if they   
   were cheap enough, it'd definitely provide a little bit more protection   
   than the cardboard boxes do. Something to consider...
