I suspect it's much like the houses of most people
here. There are
classic computers, spares for classic computers, tools, test instruments,
etc everywhere. And books of course.
Indeed
I really don't see why it's so odd to keep
bits of broken connector. I
don;t know if you know the UK mains plug, but the pins are quite
substantial pieces of brass, which are useful for making mounting blocks,
etc. And I can't beleive you've never needed a spare contact for some
type of connector which you could take from a broken one.
It isn't odd, but of course the level you takes the repairability of
your devices is something beyond common. I know (a bit of) the britsh plug
and it is very sturdy, I believe it is repairabile and it is nice to have
some parts around. As I said, I'm just curious of how much old things you
have stored in your house :)
I'm myself into this situation. Tons of things and I know no place to
store, my house is still full. I need to take a pkzip session into it :o)
