Only cables?
Don't you have Sound Blaster for ISA bus in that box, for when... you know... just in case?
Or a Pioneer U03-S SCSI DVD-ROM drive for when you need something that plays all region codes?
Or a Pentium 60 for when you want to see that bug again?
Some things are just gone when they're gone. And no, the PS/2-USB adapter isn't up for grabs!

I felt that right in the cabinet in my office closet. And like 5 NICs and nv 7xx GPUs.

7xx GPUs? 3dfx Voodoo 1 has entered the game :) Let me just activate IPX so we can have a network game.
