OK, what do you guys do with the boxes from software? Save them, or just keep the software around in its jewel case and file away the papers somewhere less space-consuming?

I keep all mine - in pristine yet dusty condition, as befits someone who is both obsessive and lazy - but I'm trying to decide whether or not to just condense them. I keep most software (that has to be run from its cd, like most games) by my computer, but if it's a productivity software like Dreamweaver it's kept in its box over on the shelf.

Maybe a happy medium is in order... productivity kept in boxes, and games have their boxes thrown away? Let me know what you guys do! I need PERSPECTIVE! auk! auk!

We don't think [livejournal.com profile] arwen_isobel would do well in this kind of complex. She'd get us kicked out for noise complaints within a month, because she'd bark at every little neighbor-noise. So we're stilllllll looking....)

I keep them all, on the same shelf I keep my books and videos and other crap. I don't have too many games, just around fifteen, and now that they're making smaller boxes they're even easier to keep. I'm a total completist, and w/games being as expensive as they are (at least new), I can't imagine throwing anything that came w/them away.

that's exactly my problem!
but i have sooooooo many books (i think around 40 boxes, not counting my mom's books) that I feel like the empty ones are just sucking up shelf space. So I have Empty Box Guilt. ;)

actually so far I've only discovered about three or four that are empty - Sheep, Sims, Riven, and Civ III. so maybe i'll stop worrying about it... *nailbite*
