I completely understand this! I have my "first" computer (the first one I bought myself, not a family computer, not one my parents bought me, but my first purchase when I moved out on my own) in my closet. It's over 7 years old now and was the cheapest one I could find, not very fast but served its purpose. I finaly got a MacBook 2 years ago, but I haven't been able to part with this old, useless desktop just yet. I even took it with me when I moved last year! It's in my closet, and I know I need to wipe the hard drive and donate it to charity (it still works). But, it's in my "junk" closet that I almost never look in, so I rarely think about it. That should be my next uncluttering project. It's not too bad, just things I can't quite bear to part with yet but know I need to.
