I have what apears to be a 300 baud apple modem for the IIgs and or compact mac. Not sure if I will ever used it for anything, unlike just about everything else I own that does get used at least once every few years.

It just sits on my table.
Full of knife slashes and dart holes.

I wouldn't buy the 14" model but that's just me, I don't like the big ones, make no sense to me. What I liked about the iBook is its small size, the 14" models never made sense to me and looked extremely ugly.

The 1Ghz iBook G4 12" is a fine beast!

The larger screen laptops are realy replacements for desktop computers, the smaller screened ones are more for salespeople on the road.

Hmm, there goes this thread, but 14" is still portable. (I have laptops with 14" and 13.3" screens here)

When you go 15" widescreen, that's starting to become unportable. The devices look like aircraft carriers. :-P

Here we have a 12" iBok and we're not salesmen, it gets used in live performance conditions and it rocks because of its portability.

About 15" models... We have a 15" Powerbook G4 and it's very portable. It's the biggest notebook I would buy. Now the 17" model is pure shit.

15" PC notebooks are pure arse, because of their huge size, the 15" Powerbooks are cool.

Anyway, useless amiga posessions, well, I also got a useless sampler. Seems i cant get it to work with any software I have. So much for teh sampler :P

I might have the same one. A black, metal, rectangular shaped device that says "sound sampler" on it. Made in Italy. Also came with a video digitizer that used to work last time I tried.

It's plastic but also black

Having in mind all things retro it has to be my Gameboy enclosure piece of shit, called "Booster Boy". It's this huge thing where you stick a Gameboy and it adds a light, magnifier, joystick, speakers and crap. Tried it once and never ever used it again. This is more useless than the Quickjoy pedal!

My Atari 800xl is probably my most useless piece of gear. It still works, but its only function at the moment is collecting as much dust as possible.... Unfortunately

What is so useless about that? Looks interesting using a TV and a remote for playing movies and music or just surfing.

my most useless posession: a Yamaha tx16w sampler. Why should I need that when I got a perfectly good working PC?

My most useless possession is an Amiga genlock (Well thats what I think it is - its got video in/out ports). I bought it for 50p because it had Amiga on it but have never tried it because it has not got a power supply.
