Personally I just went through this with the ViNTAGE load I just got. There was a bunch of ast machines and what not. I goggled and didn't find them. So I shredded ythem, so dont feel bad. The only thing I really put to the side is IBM and Apple. Theyseem to be hot and sellable. I sold a IBM thinkpad with a butterfly keyboard one night to a Taiwan guy for 178 one night. Other than IBM and Apple, I really dont bother with it. I dont have internet connection in the shop and the shop is 20 miles from home. So Im not stopping progress for a extra 75.00 bucks. Especially when Im hammered with over a 100 machines at once lol.
Although the exception to this rule is socket 478 and newer sockets still will sell on ebay as parts. Even OEM boards. So I put those to the side to insure they good.
Just my 2 cents. I would have pulled my hair out and got the sledge out after losing a day trying to research this crap. I even had socket 7-8 and 3 boards. I googled and no price, so they went into the shred.
But one thing I did save was a processor board that was like a add in card for a compaq. I didnt find it nowhere, but something tells me its worth something. Sometimes you just got to use your GUT and the force my son, luke...lol!!
