Just found 62 sticks of RAM in my dad's garage, freezer tells me to stick them on my ceiling, any other suggestions?
Send them to Freezer.
Old computer components as "decorations" look absolutely crap. Don't ruin your walls / ceiling. Bin 'em!
Sell them.
EDIT: Or send them to me.

Aye, you could get a few quid of you flog them on eBay as a job lot - untestedLieutenant_Jensen wrote:

eBay, you'd be supprised what they can sell for lol.
Is it all old EDO memory?

Just think how much all that ram was worth before. Now it's pretty much useless.
By the looks of your G15 your computer sucks, put em all in, you need it

Give 'em to charity, if you can/there's a charity that will take them in Iceland.
If not, sell them on ebay.

And I bet half of them don't even work.
Charity then - the kind of charity I'm thinking of is one that takes peoples old PC parts, refurbishes them, put's them together into working machines and then sells them very very cheap to people who can't afford new PCs.PBAsydney wrote:

Would be hard to do with RAM, it would be easier to just recycle them.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

You should eat them. Excellent vitamin x source.

Refurbing RAM, yeah that would be difficult, but at the very least they will test them, keep the ones that work, and, I would hope, recycle the ones that don't.Defiance wrote:

RAM lampshade? ftw.
melt it down for valuable metals
Dude, EDO RAM. 72-pin RAM for 2- 3- and 486 processors as well as early Pentiums. That RAM is worthless.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
That's why I said give them to a charity that builds cheap PCs to sell to poor people.Freezer7Pro wrote:

Sheesh. And coming from you too Freezer!
Nothing is utterly worthless - some people still use 2- 3-, 486's and early Pentiums.

Exactly. Especially in the 3rd world. I used to work for a charity that refurbed old computers for use in schools throughout the 3rd world.Scorpion0x17 wrote:
