Well, the mobo and proc in my compy fried, so... let's see... new case earlier this year... new vid card... new HD... probably the oldest is the floppy drive. 1997. Pulled it out of an old P1 comp, and just stuck it into the new case. Then there's my 17" Hitachi monitor I got from Qui, dating to '00 I think

Well if you count in my main rig, then it would be a NEC 8x DVD-Rom from an old gateway system. Works fine for what it does, best read capability of all my drives, reads some discs unreadable by others due to scratches, etc.

Screw your stupid AT keyboard, mine is an IBM Model M. I know its definitly the better keyboard. According to the little tag on the back it was made Feb, 3 1988. Works perfectly too.

Floppy drive from a 286. It's dead, though.
