Digital AV interface (Mortimer & Coxwell)
Promised
Canopus ADVC-100 audio and video digital interface. Old device which allows stereo audio and composite video to be digitized into a computer via an old FireWire 400 connection. It also has connections for S-video and ⅛" audio jack. See the photos for an overview of the different connections available. There are adapters available to convert that FW 400 to FireWire 800, another to convert FW 800 to Thunderbolt and then finally one to convert TTB to USB-C. Makes for a long chain of adapters but I'm including a FW 400 cable and a FW 400 to FW 800 adapter to get you part way there. Also takes a smaller format FW 400 plug and I'm including a cable to fit that too. This was designed for taking video off video tapes and old video cameras so not very high resolution sources. It would also do fine for digitizing just audio.

This is an older IDE internal drive interface device. It has a drive in it now that is dead but if you have another IDE internal HD that needs an enclosure then this might do it. Includes both a FireWire 400 and a USB cable but is missing its power adapter. Uses a fairly common 5vDC centre + adapter.

30Gb external HD (Mortimer & Coxwell)
Promised
USB 2.0, 2.5" HD drive, 30Gb (that's pretty small. Many USB thumb drives/memory keys are bigger than this now.) Internally the drive connects to a IDE interface so not upgradable to newer larger drives which are all SATA interface. Not in photo but USB cable is included.

Thunderbolt to eSATA & USB 3 adapt (Mortimer & Coxwell)
Promised
StarTech Thunderbolt to eSATA and USB 3.0 adapter. Connect an external storage drive on the eSATA and another on the USB 3 port or even a USB hub to the USB port and then multiple USB devices to that. Thunderbolt ports were common on Apple Mac hardware in around 2011-2016. (Possibly on some PCs too.)

Google ChromeCast (Mortimer & Coxwell)
Promised
A little gizmo that plugs into a power source, an HDMI port on your TV and then you connect to your WiFi and using a phone app, you log into a Google account and then it can stream Netflix and such to the TV. (I guess you'd also need the streaming service account too.) You may have to search for instructions online. Googling it would be a good option for this one.

USB car adapter (Mortimer & Coxwell)

Serial to USB converter (Mortimer & Coxwell)
"Keyspan" brand adapter to allow connection of two serial devices to a USB port. The serial ports are 8 pin DIN sockets as used in classic Mac hardware for modems, AppleTalk network, digitizing tablets, etc. The last drivers which worked would have been for early Mac OS X - so probably 15 years ago. So, limited application but maybe just what you need! (got a Centris or Quadra in the basement?)
