Help me organize my desk / PC area *PICS*

Well, I organized my desk area and this is the best I could do. It seems clean to me while I'm sitting here, but when I look at these pics it really looks like I have too much clutter. To start us off:

My corner station As you can see, I have my Panasonic stereo 20" TV sitting on a wallmount with an APEX AD-1500 player sitting underneath. Then the corner desk / computer station sits below it:

Close up on corner station As you can see, the desk has four storage sections: two next to the monitor, and two below. The center speaker rests on the monitor. The desk itself has decorations (Thing comic guy, a hand carved wooden African thing from my grandmother, candle from fiancee, etc.) Function-wise, it has my front left and right speakers, the speaker control, a stack of papers of my current business (bills that need to be paid, things I need to research, anything) .. pens, a pencil sharpener. Then I have a small stack of DVDs in the corner next to the pencil sharpener....

Top Left storage Left Rear speaker and Canon S530D printer on top. 1st compartment stores about 35 or 40 filled data CDs. Second compartment has gift certificates, business cards, and other crap. Third compartment has camera stuff (tripod, cleaning kit, etc) and canon ink carts.

Top Right storage Flatbed scanner and right rear speaker on top. The storage compartment has my storage bin (where I throw my wallet, keys, cell phone, watch, cologne, etc) and a picture of my fiancee and I.

Bottom left On top you see two stacks of paper. These are pretty much work documents that I've brought home, pictures of my fiancee and I, and other documents. Below that you see a couple hundred CDs / DVDs. About 1/3 of them are burnt. The little beige file chest keeps all of my important documents... school loan papers, check stubs, etc.

Bottom right The top holds printer and notebook paper, bottom holds the tower.

I use pretty much everything on the desk at one point or another, what do you guys recommend?

Some of my ideas

Ditch the TV.
Get a tv tunner or a LCD with composite input to watch tv on the computer. no need for an extra TV in the room when a PC can do it also.

Orginize Papers/ File them away somewhere.
All the CD/s need a new home you can't use them all at the same time..
the less you have showing the better off you are..

dude. you have a cordless mouse and a corded mousepad.
 
Can't suggest too much but the space where the speakers are is wasted. You could move the speakers forward and store cd cases or something else behind them.
Noticed you have a Compaq P110. Same exact monitor I use as my second monitor/tv. Nice monitor especially using the rgb inputs and not the vga cable.
