 I'm cleaning out my garage and I have a lot of cables that I've Held on to for way too long this garbage can is completely full of wires and adapters and ID cables, you know, I kept one or two of each but I mean some of them might look useful like here's some cat 5 never used But how much do I actually need I just had like just So many of them I even have things like this, you know PS2 adapters in your case my computer's too old for a PS2 keyboard or mouse Look, I've got four of them. One of them still in the package. I Don't think I'm a hoarder, but Sometimes when it comes to stuff like this, I feel like I am. I'm just filling up the garbage can now it's like You know even things like SATA cables You get a hard drive it comes with it. I had like 20 or 30 of them I feel like and never gonna use them. Anyway, I just thought I'd share my craziness Still clean out my garage. I got this here. It is a network adapter back in the late 90s I did not have ethernet on any of my devices everything was dial up but if I wanted to connect two computers I bought this and it went from USB to USB and I must have been running Windows XP at the time and I Could kind of sort of transfer files it would it would lock up and lose connection quite often I tried playing Quake through it that lasted about 10 seconds I did when I first switch the links. I was curious if it worked and I remember plugging in and auto-detecting of course and And working fine. I think before I throw this out. I might do a quick video on it. What do you guys think? Let me know I got this Let's forget serial port at one end and at the other end it's Eighth and stereo audio jack. I don't I don't know where I got this I don't know what I would do with this, but I have it. I've probably had it for 20 years Goodbye speakers Perfectly good speakers, but I haven't used them in years White speakers those are actually from my very first computer. I bought with my own money when I was 15 Over 20 years ago. They're all discolored, but they were great. I love these speakers. I love them so much In the garbage. I Actually am saving one of these speakers. I've already spliced the wires on it because I need to do a video on Getting audio out of an Arduino, which is what I've done this with this before Make it talk and stuff. So I guess on my second channel. You should look forward to that eventually Here's the sub that went with those speakers and actually Now that I think about it and look at this those weren't from my first computer These were the replacements after the ones from my first computer stopped working My first computer weren't surround sound, but they sounded better than these but these were still awesome speakers These are some cheapo speakers Well, that's cool about them though As they powered off USB that was pretty cool The audio didn't go through USB, but it powered off USB at any next plug I don't know if I ever even use those speakers for anything. I Know right now you guys are looking at me thinking oh Chris is a hoarder. Well, some of you think that's something thinking Why are you throwing out perfectly good stuff? Yeah? Yeah, I get you I get you Know if anything is I kind of do this once a year. I throw stuff, but I still have stuff as 20 years old I just I keep holding on to I'm like, oh, I might use this put it aside You know and then a year later. I throw out that stuff and then but there's still more There's still more and there's gonna be more because I'm still not letting go of everything this time so HP mouse PS2 I'm keeping it me at least one of these and this one's nice It's the only the only ps2 mouse I've ever had that had was a laser mouse not a track ball in it I have literally thrown out at least focus five or six pairs of these cheap You know headphones you can get for a dollar dollar store. Come on focus focus This that's a little nicer sound cancelling Little speaker or some sort of audio controls on it these They said Sony on them. I would they think they were from my The Sony palm pilot I had 15 years ago. Sorry focus try Whatever You might think power cable like this would come in handy, but I don't need 30 of them I probably just threw around threw away 20 and I still have 10. I'm still finding more more RCA cables Micro USB or mini USB Mini USB focus there we go again. I have plenty Again, the funny thing is I can already picture some of the comments because because some of you are gonna be complaining that I'm throwing away perfectly good stuff Which is true. I am but I don't need it You're gonna say I can do something with it give it to somebody but nobody needs it Nobody nobody needs it and and then there's there's gonna be the other side of the people who were just laughing it And on why I have all this stuff and why I'm keeping some of it, you know Speaking of ps2 mice mouses mice There's one There's another Here's another Here's another No, I've never bought a Mac, but I've been given Macs before This is cool Back in the day I had two or three computers You know people give away computers and I buy them so I've only had One mouse and keyboard at the time and this was a little device that I click that button and it would switch The display switch the computer to the display, but only use one keyboard and mouse I had one keyboard and mouse one monitor, but I could have up to four computers hooked to it I really really want to keep this, but I don't think I'll ever use it again Look at this I'm keeping this This was if you remember some of my very first videos I had put a computer in the dash in my car, which actually all that stuff Right here. There's the screen and the computer's actually on the other side of my Garage anyway This was a handheld mouse that I would sometimes use with I plug in I could scroll Move the mouse around and I could click right and left click so I might keep this It is It's USB. Yes, it's USB. So it's worth keeping right? I think so you let me know below what you think Also want to note that in with the screen for my computer car car computer, whatever I have some floppy disks This is these are the few of the I used to have hundreds and hundreds every year I threw away like 50 to 100 floppy disks. That's what's left Down here. I've got many CDs from my old Sony my Vika camera. That's that's saved pictures to Floppy disk or off the floppy disk a mini CD 2001 Orlando trip. I probably already backed these up, but I should make sure they're backed up Mini set take another PS2 keyboard adapter, so I had five at least this one's out of the package Hmm, it's funny how much I love this little KVM switch Like I said, I had three computers I could have hooked up four to one monitor and now and then I use that for a year or two And then I realized it's better to go the other way have one computer with multiple monitors More cheap headphones still a little bad. These ones actually look kind of nice Suppose I should keep at least one pair, right? Yeah, I'm gonna keep this pair Yeah Speaking of my first computer the first computer I bought with my own money cost me like 2100 bucks had a DVD player in it, which was awesome It's back in like 95 96 probably it was a Quantex you ever hear of them? No, probably not because I think the only people who bought computers from them was me and my dad It was an awesome computer and over the years. I still you know getting rid of the last part of it I've held on to parts of it over the years Big Quantex 99% sure they don't exist anymore My dad bought one and then like a year later. I bought one had 64 megabytes of RAM. It was awesome The good old days and you can tell you knew it was a good computer because it says right there on on the mouse pad They gave you Quantex good choice. At least there's not a question mark at the end there Good choice
