I've decided on things to go for today and yesterday. I'll take them when I go into town tomorrow

Okay - whole cupboard (yes, 2 door cupboard) full of computer discs.... Interactive atlas of GB etc. Lots of boring shit. How can I persuade him to dump. He's never looked at any of this in 10 years. This one for example, 1997. Is there anything on the back of these that I can check to tell him they wont work anymore on our (admitedly quite elderly) machines?

The thing is that I have grown attached to my bits which will 'come-in'. However, I have so much that I can't find whatever it is I need. A now ex friend suggested I throw it all away. But whenever any one else wants to borrow something of mine it is immediately to hand, so logic says keep it and when I want to ask to borrow it and there it will be on the top!

Getting rid of old (I mean 12+ years) computer of his for a not quite brand new one. Friend has revamped and put on word, photo shop etc for him so all he needs to do is connect it up to monitor and keyboard.

Still trying to get him to look at discs etc. What is the oldest disc you'd keep -
Ill tell you that right now, He has at least 4 versions of photoshop and something called Foto station 4 (even though we have CS suite)
and umpteen atlas's that are no longer relevent....
