My IBM AT keyboard from the middle eighties. Just lover the feel of this thing and the fact that the function keys are on the left hand side.

Used to be my old 1.2gb hd I think, about 4-5 years old.

Now its, my case I think, about 3-4 years old.

Gotta be my trusty Yamaha CDRW 4260. 4x write 2x re-write x 6x Read, now look at what ya can get. That's what comes when ya buy hardware when it first comes out. Gotta justify the £400 somehow and the only way to to hold onto it for as long as I can. Mind you that Yamaha 16 x 12 x 32 looks mighty tempting :D

[Edit]

Doh!, it's the USR Modem.

I upgrade a lot so nothing stays the same for very long. Through it all though I've kept my trusty USR 56K ISA modem. These days its a back-up for the occassions when DSL craps out. It does come in handy sometimes.

Like DAN, my USR 56K ISA modem... soon to be retired to my folk's PC.

I'll be looking for a PCI solution before Christmas.
