Got my first 486 to scrap today.

Check out the memory chips on the video card!

Check out the gold on the back of the memory cards!

What a great day!

Whatever you do, Don't! remove those labels, or your warranty will be void

You are in the possession of some higher than scrap value parts there Mech ; ) Google those ISA cards to see

Those are Steve's pic's and parts, I just helped out with posting them for him.

Oh No! Mech, sorry I got you mixed up in this, maybe we can fight our way out of it, Shane style

**Bear** · 07-13-2012, 01:34 AM

Dang, Steve, those are some good photos! My compliments on your photography skills

Thanks I will.

I'm still learning, and I don't quite understand...

I have some at home that look just like this - http://ruggedcountryatv.ca/recycling/rams.jpg

I'm aware of the 485 processors being very expensive, but those are, also?

Congrats, too!

That's just old memory Koldes, the earlier EDO type. Apparently none of the buyers distinguish between the older and newer types of memory

Thanks for the confirmation. That's what I thought, but since it was with the 486 stuff, I wasn't quite sure. Much appreciated.

You should be able to get more then scrap value for that VLB video card on ebay (if you like that sort of thing).
