Hi Guys, this is a little absurd but I want to know what do you usually do with the cases (cartons) of your powerbook and other accessories you bought; ipod,airport.base station etc,etc. Do you throw them, keep them or what?

I personally keep everything - helps a bunch with resale in the event it comes time to upgrade.
2.4GHz Macbook. 22" LCD. External 640GB HD. Yum.

Yeah I just sold my G4 PowerBook 800 DVI. I had kept the box and most everything that came in it. The guy who bought it was happy to see that I had the original stuff.

However, for a desktop, that's pretty hard, since the boxes and everything are so much bigger.
