Left over parts after computer move

We all chuckle when the TV shows a mechanic who fixes a car and then gives the owner the extra parts he didn't put back in. Well I just moved my computer to a new spot after it had been in one place fr about 14 years. I ended up with a bunch of power transformers and USB cables. Everything is working well in the new location so whatever these parts were doing has long since become unessential.

One problem I noticed during the move is how much room the "all in one" printers take up. My all in one is relatively small compared to past units I had but its still by far the biggest space taker of the whole computer set up.

I had to move the computer set up to make way for a gas stove i bought. I have arthritis, especially in my legs and the cold makes it much worse. I decided that while I will conserve fuel in the majority of the house space , I'm going to be warm in the room where I spend the most amount of time. I'm also going to put a TV on the wall above the computer. This will make the same room the "TV room" and also make it easy to play TV movies I sometimes get recorded as AVI's or WMV's on a nice big LCD TV instead of the relatively small monitor. Its inevitable that the computer would become a part of the home entertainment center.
