Fred,

The football-on-the-end-of-a-string outlet boxes have never worked for
me: too crowded, too much weight in one place, and too many wires to
tangle.

There are less expensive alternaties, and although they don't have
surge-protection for Ethernet cables or cable TV coaxial cable, they
do fine for everything I've ever needed one for.

YMMV.

Here's a basic four-foot strip with surge-protection, and plenty of
room for wall warts:
