In Plastic
No problem
But don't become one of these Pentium-only-collectors!
I can only laugh when I see all these Threads where Pentium-fanatic collectors talk about their ec´xtremelx rare pentiums or ES chips.
It is incredible how many rare chips are in the pentium range...
... do you see the paradoxon?


...
Sorry for that answer to all pentium-only-collectors but for me it was time to get rid of that thought.
I needed to write it down.
Thanks and sorry to all that feel offended.
I'd say I am drunk but I am not.
I am still having my own private party about my recent auction win - the KIM1 with the white 6502 on the white board for $270.
Ok, I am mental drunk!
Does any pentium-only-collector understand what I write here???


I do yes. But I like Pentium chips (all makes, AMD,IBM,Intel)

But I also collect post pentium and pre pentium. But my collection is pretty colourful, and... I like it anyway!

when I have them all ( I doubt it, there will always be the missing sspec ) then I will stop and do something else, just as I did something else before I spent time collecting cpus. One day I will get them all on a web page to share. I said before in another thread it is a good idea to know..
WHY you collect and WHAT it does for you. I wont repeat it here but it is important to think about collecting, and not just a question of I must have one because he has one, or I must have it because he is bidding on it.

datecode 8607
I'm 19.
Didn't find any other good cause to spend time other than hunting for vintage chips and trying to build up my site =)
And I have lots of chips that are older than myself.
