    those are the boards out of it, i have absolutly no idea what is what, what anything is worth or how to get it off. so time to go read up on some older post. any tips welcome. also the power supply was a hefty "power strip" type deal with a small battery in it and a board with some copper. and are the lcd screens worth anything by themselves?

    It all looks very good. Some hi grade boards. Those aren't LCd screens their a florescent style display. At least the small ones are. I guess if its touchscreen there probably is an lcd or crt in there somewhere. I'd say you're looking at 2-3$ a pound for the boards. Good score!

    With those I'd unscrew the board from the Aluminum backing and toss them all in a box. Those are really good Quality boards. The only Questionable board is the one with the Florescent display on it.
