As someone already stated in this thread. Its just stuff. I also had a collection with a friend when I was 25. I started programming with 12, so I had tk85, tk90x, appleII, MSX, amiga500, amiga1200, amiga2000, amiga4000, phillips CDI, videolaser, nintendos, playstation1, dreamcast, peripherals and etc...

I decided to have a change in my career, so I closed this office I had with my friend, and we had to decide what to do with it. We donated all to a local computer museum. Now I have this mantra, If I have some hobby stuff I have not used for three years, I donate it. Donated my Xbox360 and my playstation3 recently.

Sometimes I get caught by nostalgia, like last week when I was looking at a appleII clear case mod, and I get a small urge to buy another one. Then I just remember how good was that time, and that good memories are never the same when you live them again.

Now I use the money and time I would spend with a collection in many ephemeral hobbies. The current are electronic projects, laser cutting and Kitesurf.
