god, its like we bought the same machines. after the Amiga, my first PC was a packard bell with the DX2-66. Fucking amazing times.
Pentium MMX was my next PC i paid for with my own money, feeling like a proper adult.
You cant be dropping a nostalgia bomb like this outta nowhere. You gotta declare war or something first! Isnt thems the rules?

You failed to mention the one piece that's still in use! I'll take that BNC splitter if you're not using it.

I was attacked with no warning too!; I decided to clean the drawer when for the 10th time when reaching inside, I had one of that cursed EPROM pins stabbing me under a fingernail!

But I did mention it! It's the Ethernet splitter. Apart from the terrible speed and sniffing paradise, 10Base2 was a nice solution; no hubs, a single daisy chained cable going around, and adding another computer only required one more splitter and laying a short cable from the last computer to the new one.
I'd gladly give it to you, but you'd have to come by to get it and have a coffee - I'm in Brazil ;-)

486DX2 are still used in PC104 computers. I was updating some Turbo C code in a virtual NT computer using VirtualBox almost three years ago.
