So do I. This is about half of them, the rest are stacked in boxes, a lot of them in those envelope things (the other drawers have stuff like cameras in 'em). :)

I like cases, the rest aren't in cases, they're just stacked in boxes (I got a few of those TDK 100 spindle ones) and it's a bastard to find something if you need it.

Umm... Reinstall RedHat8... Then get:

1) J2SDK from java.sun.com
2) ntfs-kernel module from sourceforge.net
3) xmms MP3 module
4) Openbox + epist + numlockx
5) My script backups from *Web Address*
6) firestarter from firestarter.sourceforge.net - I haven't figured out iptables completely yet... I am but a slave to GNOME.

Hmm.
