About to begin building a new 'puter.

Old main workhorse desktop just decided to kick the bucket. 13yrs it lasted me! We had our ups and downs but now that it's finally gone it won't get jeaslous of the new one.

But reading up on the way to go for the next build... jeez things have moved on. Thankfully I don't need a gfx card those prices are stupid.

I will try and resurrect ol' mate one or two more times but after that it's going in the 'puter graveyard :(

My husband likes to collect the magnets from his old computers and stick them on his filing cabinet and hangs shit off them.

Same, I used to collect speaker magnets too.

Do you know what these are from?

Mystery over. They are off cars that have lights on their roofs like council trucks.
