My Yamaha YST-M10 speakers. They're okay but I really need to upgrade them.

 

[Imaginer]

Nothing. This is a completely new everything mucho better system. (and it better last me for a looooooooong time)

As for Komet, the oldest part in that one is the scanner interface card. Very dusty. Dunno why it is still in there up to this day.

 

[rickn]

in my current pc it would be my fireport 20 scsi card. in my linux box it would be the 5 1/4 floppy, I have had that since my 286
