Awhile ago someone gave me an old 486 to play around with. Eventually it died, and so I threw it out. I stripped everything out of it, and I can see myself using some of the parts I saved, but I can't think of anything I would ever use the memory for.
I have 4 8mb sticks of memory which I'm pretty sure I will never use.
I tried to sell them on Ebay, but no one wanted them, even for $1.
Can anyone think of anything I can do with them? Donate them to a worthy cause? Anyone here have any suggestions or want them?
I'm just the kind of person who can't throw out any good part.

Unless you can find someone locally who really needs them, trash 'em; they aren't worth the cost of shipping at this point.

I put one on my keychain!

If you get a file, you can make a point/edge on the silcon and fashion a handy utility blade in a pinch. I've opened up tons of boxes with my 4MB 30-pin SIMM!

Give out <strong>1</strong> to different people with old machines who don't know about pairing SIMM's :).
