I'm a pack rat
Dexter:
Burned the contens from my 'monster' 420MB hard drive onto a blank CDR a while ago. I remember the hassle of having to scour the house for its whereabouts, then the trouble getting a text file off it in my windows 2000 box, a quick dump onto CD and I won't be having to do it again. The missus always takes the piss out of me for 'hoarding' old technology, until of course shes looking for an old file thats tucked away somewhere ancient.
Having a few plastic storage crates certainly makes for the peaceful life :)

Harry Potter:
Threw out a crapload (crapload=1-5 boxes) of amiga stuff, mainly disks. Should have been more careful though as I think I threw out some good stuff I needed. Like the power supply for the Amiga :(
Stingray:
I just emptied out my computer/ game room so I can remodel the room. I have no idea how the pile of stuff I took out of there looks bigger than the room itself. I don't know how I'm going to get it all back in there.

I put a TRS-80 Model 100 notebook, Sega Saturn, and Game Gear on EBAY just recently. I think I made aroun $80 or so.
I had them in storage for at least 5 years. Got rid of them to make room for a bathroom in my basement.
I have a Genesis with CD that I need to put on there next.

I'm a Pack Rat too!
My wife and I moved in October/04 and we brought alot of junk with us. Last weekend we donated 6 garbage bags of old clothes.
I still have my old C64 5.25 disks in the basement along with 5 cases of 3.5disks that contain lots of pir8te classic games. I also have 7-8 business boxes full of NES and Sega games that I have collected over the years. And I have a box full of computer stuff in my office that I haven't opened since we moved.
Maybe one day I'll clean up my crap.
