lol
damn
i could use a few of those things...like the microdrive!
and the processor, or the motherboard...because i could replace my athlon 900, or use this mobo to use my other athlon 900 that is just sitting around...

not too sure on what you should toss, but maybe this will help:
i've heard iomega spelled backwards is satan :lol:
actually yes, rid yourself of those ungodly iomega components. they are evil, nasty, dirty and did i mention evil?

I run duals because i multitask between notepad, outlook express and winamp :lol:

Honstly, here's my opinion
Lose the USB Zip Drive
Lose one of the digital cameras, keep whichever one you like better, or has better specs, or however you want to decide :)
Lose the External SCSI Drives
Lose the External CD Changer
At that point you can probably remove the Adaptec SCSI Controller from your machine, unless you have other SCSI devices I missed or you didn't list. Even if you remove it, I wouldn't toss it or sell it just yet, they can come in handy when you want to add a SCSI device, unless you're gonna go buy a Ultra160 SCSI Adapter :)
Unless you really need the HD space, you can probably lose the internal 6GB Hard Drive as well. I would recommend losing it over the external simply because the external is more versatile, easier to transport between computers, and is great for file swapping between friends who all have firewire ports :)

hope this helps :)
