I would take a THOROUGH look at these computers before you proceed with anything. As mentioned above, schools almost always auction off anything of value. If they are giving them away, I would be...
Intel CPU part numbers always start with S and are 5 characters long. Google the part number and you should find everything you need.
Vista print is a rip off, get your garments printed locally and they are much cheaper.
What was the rate per pound on the bottom ones? I was quoted around 5-6/lb.
If you pay in advance, I would only do so with Paypal.
Top two are probably peripheral(mid grade high), , next two are probably lower end telecom, last one is telecom. Your buyer will decide the final grades.

The controllers for traffic lights are worth while if you have the chance to acquire them. I buy them from the road commission here and they have some pretty nice boards inside. Most of the shells...
I don't want to be a jerk, but that is ****ing STUPID.
Mike beat me to it, those are indeed from an old IBM machine, most likely an AS400.

Be ready for lots of CRT's and printers, and not much of anything with any value. Also plan on loosing money on the drive, or at the very best breaking even. Recycling drives are not a sustainable...
Etack is the man to talk to, not sure if he is active here still.
I would be wary of anyone buying them. They are either enjoying a government subsidy or doing something shady.
What the **** is SWIM?
Having access to something and using it properly are two different animals.
I do not want to cause a controversy here, but... I find it extremely difficult to beleive someone had enough brains to palletize and prepare all that for sale, and then sell it for 12.00. There is...
I am NOT speaking for Mario, BUT my "professional" opinion is that the cards with the long gold fingers will probably go for the same price as RAMbus, and the short fingers will go as mid grade high....
It appears as though their policy of being major a-holes to everyone has not paid off.
Profit on ebay is easy! My general rule is that unless I can sell an item for 20.00, I won't list it.(Or list it in bulk to make up for it) There are exceptions, such as small items that can be...
FYI, the ones from grocery stores suck because they are usually not triple walled like the heavy duty ones. If you have a good relationship with your local scrap yard they should be willing to sell...
