Hey, I just bought a cool old piece of tech, and it needs a cable with that old fat USB connection they used to have. I dug in my box of old cable and found several, of different lengths.

I also keep a box of old AC adaptors, and when I get some old electro-box thingy, I can almost always find an adapter for it.

Everybody makes fun of the tech hoarder, until he saves the day. Then they go back to making fun of him again.

I still have my Laplink cable.

The real box of cables is the one you inherited from your father that he got from his father.
