the child of the "how many..."-poll
lol
single chips, boards and portable computers count.
I'd take
my Intellec 4 CPU mod with the grey 4004,
the UPP103 CPU mod with the C4040,
the SN514B
maybe the MOS 6502 white or the KIM-1, hard to say
...
and all I could pick up fast enough, so my count is near 3. |

Threads like this are fun.
I would grab my IBM/LockHeed Martin RAD6000 engineering samples and the Q029 I just got  |

Luckily i would grab my one display of them and i should escape with a few hundred chips, but i must admit that i would be going for my motorcycle first, since i like it more and its definatly worth more, hmmm altho it is insured and my chips arent. _________________ "The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."

Not sure i would go for the chips at first... Think i will go for my Limited Pentium Pro belt buckle. Since its limited to 1000 pcs i would believe its more rare than anything else in my collection i think. Then i go for my box of ES chips

Its just the buckle, not sure it was made to wear, the two chips are mounted without protection. _________________ My collection: http://www.cpucollection.se :::::: http://www.chipdb.org Photos of chips you never knew existed. Now over 6000 different chips in the database. |

none myself. It's not that I don't have many chips, I just try not to be bound by physical belongings as they tend to come and go. Well, if I had plenty of time I'd try to get my boxed Atari 65XE
ps. nice buckle, man! Probably one of about 1000 buckles that consists of more than 5 million small parts _________________ Power without the price. |

If I didn't need to worry about rescue of people and animals, then the only possible answer is...
ALL OR NONE! We will all get out safe, or die in the attempt! No, I am just kidding.
Since my chips are in storage boxes of 24, it would take more time to save less than 24, because I would have to stop, open the box, look at the chip, select a chip... better to grab the whole box. |
