4 800mhz Slot A AMD's
2 Cyrix Pr200 Processor
2 AMD 300mhz Processors
2 Motherboards that Can accept Cyrix / AMD / Intel Chips
1 Old Gateway. My dad paid an extra hundred dollars for ONE extra mb of ram.
a Hd Bigger than a CD-Rom that hold 200mbs
2 Caviar 300mb Hds
Weird Compaq The motherboard has pci slots on 2 different sides of the case
AT Power Supplys
There is more but I cant think of it right now.

What do you guys have collecting dust?
 
I had to rent a 5 x 10 storage facility to hold all my junk. But being as I just got a new camera I walked around my house and took photos in 3 different rooms. I think I qualify as a pack rat.

Lets see my first laptop :)

I think my 8086 (among other things) is my membership card for the pack-rat club. A bit hard to carry around with you everywhere, but who knows when you'll need a spare 8MHz? :D

definately not packin as hardcore as the brave souls above me but i do have a few old rigs lying here and there....they all seem to have worthless cd drives. i've been debating on giving the 3 old p1's i have some Timeless WU fun.....maybe boost my ppd by like .00001 or something :D hell one of them is actually my sisters gateway to her internet life...she likes having it in her room even though 15 feet down the stairs and she could use a p4 18x faster than that thing lol...
 
I just found some more nice stuff.

1 PCI ATi Graphics card (Vintage 1991) with Upgradable ram slots
1 Duron Processor (Keychain)

The ATi Is going into my Server comp if it will still work lol
