I don't remember the board numbers that came with the memory. If you have specific boards I'll try to check tonight. I seem to remember some lose J-11 chips somewhere- I'll try to find them. Thanks, Paul On Sat, May 20, 2017 at 5:40 PM, jim stephens via cctalk < cctalk@classiccmp.org> wrote: >

I just ran across a sale on epay by a guy who thought you could pull the processor chip off the board and sell each in separate auctions. I couldn't find the processor from the huge number of gold scrap chip auctions he had, but he said it (or the other) chip(s) for the board were listed. I
