Hey,
Anybody here have any old computer chips that you want to sell? I mostly looking for Intel chips from the 1970s but I collect just about any type chip.and I will give you a lot more than gold value for most. It's better than collecting stamps :wink:

well.. I WOULD send them to you.. but unfortunately.. I'm just as much of a geek myself.. I have an old 486 DX2/66 processor upstairs.. along with a Cyrix 133 cpu.. I have others too.. but the 486 is my prized possession :)

I don't know... I am a pretty big geek! Actually I am looking for chips (CPU, RAM, ROM/PROM/EPROMs and other support chips) from mostly the 1970s. To give you an example: I collect CPUs before 486, before 386, before 286, before 186, before 188 although I have a nice collection of them as well :wink:

The first CPU was the C4004 followed shortly by the C4040, C8008 and C8080. I am mostly collecting the chips around this area and spend a lot of time on Ebay doing it.
I actually have a website that I show off these chips: http://www.vintagechiptrader.com/Collection.htm

What do you guys think?
