Unrelated to the python language, Pythons are a cabling/organization system used my mom's company. basicly a python is a bunch of coiled cords that hang down from the ceiling and all come together in a little black box. The box has connectors for the Network(Ethernet), Phones(ISDN), and 120VAC for your computer/docking station. Its pretty cool, since you can just move your desk to anywhere there is a python hanging, which makes organizing new members into your team easy.
