Um LASER 310, um pedaço do ORIC e a placa que recria o JUPITER ACE (até agora não sei a quem pertencia pois ficava passeando pelas mesas do Bytemaniacos e ZDP)
Clearing out the attic, we found this... one of THREE old BBC Microcomputers we had festering up there. This is a Model B but we also found a BBC Master with a double-disk drive. It belonged to my parents some time in the early 80s.

All my dad's old 5-and-a-quarter inch floppies, kept for unknown reasons from his time as an engineer working for Walkers crisps.
A photo tribute to an old machine, 1999-2007 and still running strong, but no longer needed. It was also the noisiest thing in my new place, but served me well over the years.
* Intel Celeron 433
* 256 MB RAM
* Dual-boot WinXP/98SE
* ~75 GB disk space, 2 drives
* 4X CD-R / multi-format dual-layer DVD+/-R drives
* Numerous stickers
* Super-optimized boot time + drive transfer speed via ATA66/80-conductor UDMA IDE cables (new at the time.) XP used only ~64 MB of RAM after boot.
I basically wrote all my DHTML experiments and projects (DHTML Arkanoid as one notable example), did audio/video and photo editing on this machine up until 2005 when I moved to California, at which point it became a storage/DVD-writing machine and dev server (also ran http, smtp and ftp.)
Now I have 250 GB of external storage and a laptop that does dual-layer DVDs, so this old ghetto dev machine has officially been rendered obsolete. I moved all of the important data over to my new system, so I'm officially done with it. This photo serves as a mental note of its history.
