    1 - IBM Gold Cap CPU
    2 - Probably peripheral / Mid-High. If it was in with a large load of finger cards, it would probably just move along with them.
    3 - Telecom - The gold fingers are a bonus, but low ic population is a detractor.

    Very nice. Telecom stuff is the best in terms of value and also dismantling/accessing circuit boards.

    yes but there IS some tantalum on that telecom board (the little yellow boxes)

    I generally pull those before I send mine off....$30+ /lb is worth the time
    PROFIT is made when you BUY/ACQUIRE NOT when you sell

    #2 actually is a Finger Board. It's going to be graded as Finger Board Trimmed/Devalued because someone ripped the gold fingers off it.

    Pnutfarmer - This hasn't been trimmed. The gold left is the actual slot size, believe it or not.

    Oh, wow. I have never seen one that small. Well it may still go in that category.

    I was thinking it was trimmed because I just got some in about 30 minutes ago that the person had trimmed all the fingers from the cards and memory.

    actually #2 is a video capture card...I was thinking it came out of something to do with video....the part number on the board gave it away (google is my friend right?). It is made my American Dynamics and cost a pretty penny new ($800ish)....probably came out of a CCTV system hence the lack of a finger like you would see in a PC. And the ones I saw had that weird small gold things on the side.

    Hope that helps.

    and actually...if you didn't mind taking a chance you would have to refund the shipping and take a shot at it...you might check Ebay and put it up as UNTESTED/parts only and see fi someone will bite for more than the couple of bucks you might get as scrap...especially since it costs so much new...someone might take a chance and drop $10 on it...heck maybe more since really MOST solid state boards don't really go bad unless they get static shock. Just thought.

    Well webuyselland trade stuff, I must say you are pretty on point, we picked up two gay lords from this company all lose mixed and we got to sort it all out, this customer fixes Camara monitoring systems and that Amarcian Dynamics name is on a lot of the boards.

    Get that Ebay page cranked up as we discussed before when you said you were going into Ewaste........Picked up a scrap computer was missing all the sides, memory, hard drive etc..........Just sold the processor for $50......Waiting on Mboard to sell for another $50........Untested boards will also sell if the item is in demand......Picked up a bunch of video game stuff early 90's.......No way to test but it said SEGA on it so I knew what it was.........Got about $30 each board untested..........When I say video game I mean arcade......There is a re-birth of people fixing old arcade machines and putting them in man caves etc.........Sounds like you are off to the races with your ewaste venture!!!!

    mike one of my first ebay sells was a set of boards out of a sega arcade machine, i think it was cruising usa but i was not sure,,,i bought the boards from my yard at 30 cents per pound,,,,there were 6 large boards and 2 small ones..i sold them to a man in argentina for over 300 bucks and he paid the shipping.....i think having all of them for one game upped the value some,,,those boards are definatley something everyone should look for
