What do you do with component packaging?
There was a thread over at R3D about what people do with their boxes that their PC stuff came in and if you put it on display. Well, I don't put any of it on display, but I took a pic of what we DO do with it all.
This is pretty funny....or pretty sad.....however you might want to think of it:
  
....so, what do y'all do with your boxes? |

I stack it in a closet- the cool stuff out in the open (Fort III box, ATI 9700 box, Abit NF 7) Cool to me, not anybody else in the house though...

I stopped saving boxes for long periods of time.
I did notice I still have a motherboard manual for an old AMD K5 motherboard that died too many years ago to remember.

Ziploc? I do the same thing.
Could always eat the packaging... Pass the salt!
Those peanuts though taste bad!
