    Interesting find in an old satellite receiver

    Got about 50 old satellite receivers the other day. There were a few really old ones in the lot. One of them had a nice gold cap ceramic CPU inside!
    The main board was very much like a large socket motherboard, also had one finger card in it. The hard drive was already gone. The model was a DISH PVR 921.
    The CPU inside was a VIA C3 processor, previously I found quite a few of these CPU's in old media player boxes, that I used to get from one certain source.
