Other than CPUs and the other types of chip that I collect:
Faeries
Maps (old maps, especially of the area I grew up and the area where I live, but anywhere really...)
Natural History books (older the better)
Bad neighbours (hey, that one just fell in my lap!)
Memories (although I try to just hang on to the good ones...)
The list goes on, but it gets too wierd I'm a cleptomaniac  _________________ My graphics card database can be found at http://www.gpuzoo.com.

Opening the lid seems to work for me
I guess you could motorise it.. fairly straight forward with limit switches etc. |
