I should have added that I don't want something six feet long -- I want something with just enough spacing for plug-in bricks, that is, outlets maybe 2-3 inches apart. -- The meek can have the Earth; | Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology the rest of us have other plans.|uunet!attcan!utzoo!henry henry@zoo.toronto.edu

The alternative that I have used is to buy those little
three-grounded-outlets from one things. They look like this:

Well, you get the idea. The plug on the back is grounded and is
exactly beneath the center outlet. This gives you just enough room to
plug two 'bricks' side-by-side in the end outlets, taking up only one
space on the power strip.
