    If they are not removable from the boards olddude just leave them on. Most the buyers should pay motherboard price for them I would think.

    did 17 of the 20 he brought yesterday, just then he shows up with 20 more and says he thinks he underestimated may have as many as 100, but Im just not finding much in them that I recognise. 4 cpus and several mini rams.
