In the meantime, maybe I should get rid of some of my computer games?

Never. I still have all of my  games going back to the C-64 days. The
only games I ever owned and don't own anymore are my Atari 2600 games
but I am not upset over them. Well, ok, I miss Adventure a little bit.
That was my favorite game on the system.

I did, however, get rid of all the extra computers, monitors and other
assorted hardware crap I had lying around a number of years ago. I
still don't regret that decision. As Dimensional Traveler pointed out,
the games are the reason I kept those computers around. But then
DosBox came along and I decided those computers and all the hardware
for them weren't necessary anymore.

The only old hardware I still have and use are my Roland SCC-1 and
external midi modules.

Now the question is: Do you all still use these old stuff? ;) I still
use my old analog 3.5mm audio speakers, VGA, DVI, Belkin OmniCube KVM
from Y2K (how in the world does it still work today?), PS/2 clicky
keyboard and mouses, Casio Data Bank 150 calculator watch, etc. At
least, those are still useful to me. :)
