I have taken regular mailing labels and have had my wife write out the 
label, then we wrap clear packaging tape over the label and I apply a 
Braille label on to this clear tape so anybody can read it and I can feel 
the tag on my own.

I use this also to identify all the cables going to the cpu, from stereo, to 
stereo, from DecTalk, speakers and so forth.  I have them set away from the 
plug so they don't interfere when having many cables plugged in back.

A while ago we were discussing ways of keeping wallworts straight.  At the
time I thought, just use dimo tape, and put labels on each supply.  Well I
spent about an hour and a half putting labels on at least seven of the
little buggers.  Now I find that the heat generated inside the supplies, has
loosened the adhesive, and my labels are somewhere around here on the floor.
Anybody got a better idea?  Let's see,
supplies for the Icom at-90, Braille note, gps rx, computer cable modem,
phone line modem, cable amplifier, computer speakers, tape backup drive,
scanner, printer, aph recorder, cell phone, tw1 talking watt meter,
amplified FM antenna, portable CD player, not to mention the drawer full of
wallworts, that have no obvious use at the present time.  I'd also like to
mark the big supplies with the accompanying radio, and recommended amperage
of fuses.
