I think David's idea's a good one.

I tend to buy these multiCD Hard boxes (12 CD'es per Box) & then I call them 
things like "OS'es", "Site Tools", "Java Tools","Apps", "DB Stuff", 
"Backups-Data", "Backups-Code" stuff like that.

So in "OS'es" I have a couple of copies of Win95 (Orig + release2), NT4S, 
NT4WS,OS/2WSEB, Win98, & numerous copies of Linux (SuSe, Mandrake, RH).

In Apps I have 3 different copies of MS Office (the Access2 version,Office 97, 
Office2K), StarOffice5.2, Lotus SmartSuite (various versions).

The boxes are rock hard & stack better than lots of jewel cases. Also I then 
know where to look for an OS, a desktop app, a Java tool etc.
