My (late) computer. RIP :'(

My computer passed away on the 22nd April 2011 after living a long life of ten years. Admittedly, its 'innnards' at the time of death were from a 2005 fujitsu siemens, but nevertheless. These are some photos of the parts being boxed up :'(
(not to throw away, just put in a cupboard for a time when I feel sentimental/brave enough to rebuid it back to how it was in 2001)

  1. The box - about to be taped up and put in a cupboard. Au revoir my old friend :'(

  2. (from top to bottom) the floppy disk drive, the now empty hard drive enclosure/bracket and the dvd drive (with the box for small components underneath)

  3. the box of all the smaller parts. 3 graphics cards (one nvidia geforce 7300GE, one 8600GT that i never got to use as the PSU was hugely underpowered and one merely labelled 'elephant'. I still have...

  4. The original 180W PSU that I used to the bitter end - is there any chance that could have been what caused the mobo to eventually short?

  5. the 500W PSU that was physically too big for the case (unless I removed the DVD drive permenantly). No matter, as I accidentally killed it within 15 minutes of getting it by flicking the red voltage...

  6. both the hard drives about to be packed away until i get an IDE to USB cable. The one on the right (Maxtor) was the about-to-break 200GB Windows 7 one, the Hitachi was the quieter 80GB one running...

  7. the (presumably) shorted motherboard (with the original motherboard just visible underneath at the top)

  8. a shot through the empty case - hey, i like photography, m'kay? :P

  9. the side of the stripped-out case

  10. the back of the case (after I stripped out all the parts)

  11. The computer in it's current resting place (the case is now an empty skeleton)
