The days of fiddling with retro-tech is over for me.  I  
gathered up all the old modems (about 6-8 of them including a  
USR Robotics 56K Business Class lifetime warranty) I had  
acummulated over the years, and gave them to someone who  
"claims" might be able to put some of them to use for ham radio  
projects or something.

I had about as many CRT monitors of various sizes too.  Cut off  
the cords and delivered the monitors to recycling.

The next biggest space-waster are about 8 old PC cases in  
various stages of assembly/disassembly.  They really gotta go  
too.

Yeah.. the old stuff triggers interesting memories. But, time  
is best spent in discovering new things to do, imho.
