    I use 'em as decorations on my Christmas tree! You should see the way RJ45 ends sparkle when you cap a Christmas tree light with them too!

    I removed the top off a few of the Ram chips and made a camera out of them (RAM chips are sensitive to light)

    Remember the good old days of AMIGA ?

    Well the ram expansion cards for the old A2000 took 30 pin SIMMS. An AMIGA could outperform any of the PCs of the 80s, and with the accelerators, most of the 90s machines too.
    The OS was far more advanced than Windoze, and as easy to use as the MAC's.

    It was easy to program using C, Machine code, or many other languages. There was a very dedicated community of users....just a pity that Commodore overpriced and under sold their darling.
    I still use mine (A2000 PPC AND 68060-66 accelerators, 256MB mem, 7x 40 gig SCSI Hard disks
    and a professional graphics card and yes...the TOASTER ! It all still works well.

    But then again I also still dabble with my old Memotech 512 8 bit micro..128Kb Ram and floppy drive!...that too was a great machine! (CPM)


    I haven't been in here too much recently..hope to post more soon though.

    Best wishes and fond memories! Pun intended!

    Similar to the key ring idea; String 'em all together and hang it from your rearview mirror.
    Or if you have enough you could build a mailbox or birdhouse out of them.
