Today in our 13x13 dining room ,we have a corner breakfast nook with storage in the seats[full of computer stuff from cords to hard drives], under neath everything that wouldn't fit in the seat
my guru has his 19 inch monitor , full tower complete with all the DVD, burners, steering wheels , computer microscope, joy sticks , network stuff going to my machine, the server , the machine upstairs, the two repair machines he's working on ,several pieces parts he is robbing parts off of,6 dead power supplies, my machine mid-tower ,scanner , printer, enough soft ware to open a shop, two full three piece speaker sets on each machine a couple of portable stands for the extra computers, and all my paper work I am using trying to do family tree research and we just got rid of all the old part a couple weeks ago. I wish I had a closet to put it in. There is stuff back down in the basement already too. It has been a busy week ! Now he is in a hurry to fix these two machines so we can build the game server he has been collecting parts for.

Ok, I guess I should have made this short....you aren't alone :D we still have a path so it isn't too bad yet ;)

Hey, I have a 2 car garage I was starting to convert into a computer repair room. It's now too full of old systems to move, or to get even one car in :(

anyone in the Detroit area want to come sort through that mess and take some of it away?

as soon as you get rid of it, three people call wanting to upgrade machines that we threw parts away because they are so absolete , so we start saving all over again. No matter what ,we tell them it would be cheaper to build a real machine but they want to save that ol' 75 pentium

:eek:

I went from a room full of baseball cards to a room full of computer parts. I get made fun of by my friends for being such a geek, but I'm the first one they go to when they want to upgrade or when they're having problems.
