I have been clearing out the garage this w/e, including my spare electric, telecomms and computer cables.
Does anyone have a good rule of thumb?
Things that have gone or not gone:
About a dozen multi 4 or 6 way short extensions leads ... keep if not ancient.
12v lighting transformer and kit dad used above his drawing board decades ago .. keep.
Centronics printer cables .. all gone except one.
Mice .. everything pre-USB gone.
Analogue TV aerial cable .. all gone.
RS232 / 423 cable .. keep one.
5 pin DIN audio cable ... gone.
41612 Euro Cables ... can't decide; they cost a fortune back when.
etc.
Does anyone have a system that works? Ditto mobile phones?
(Just found what I think is a car-charging lead for a Nokia communicator. Gone.)
