10 Ceramic Intel 1486 cpu chips---what would you pay? - Page 2

just a box of mix from regualr green fiber to pentium pro. box weighed almost 50 pounds. You would be surprised how many cpu's you can fit in a large flat rate box when you stack them pin to pin like a sandwich before putting them in the box.

PTS, I appreciate the tip on how to place them in there. Will keep that in mind if the whole refining thing doesnt pan out.
