In my engineering class, we're testing which of their many old computers still work or not. If they're not, we simply place them in a pile for them to be recycled. My teacher put me in charge of this, so I opened one computer up and saw it had lots of pretty RAM........ pretty.......

So I decided to jack the RAM out of all the computers. It's not like it was a bad thing, they were going to be destroyed anyways..... =3

Man that picture is big, I'll resize it soon.

 

Soo.... II have 11 Sticks of DDR2 RAM.... and I don't know what to do with it. I personally can't use it considering it's DDR2 and each stick only has 256MB..... So I have to find an alternative use for it.

 

 

Ideas I have:

 

  • Necklace
  • Circuit wall (cover a wall with all sorts of computer parts)
  • Circuit Locker (same thing as above, but in my school locker)
  • Ninja Stars
  • RAM Sword
  • Use them as stickers all over my PC
  • Plug them into my brain, more RAM = better performance? jk =P

 

You guys got any ideas?

Sell it, don't destroy it or do stupid things with it.

Believe it or not, some people will still buy this.

Problem is finding people who WOULD buy something like this in my community... The only people I can think of who have computers old enough to use these is the school I took them from....

I'm sure people with 2P / 4P folders would appreciate the DDR2 sticks :) but if you don't ave any takers, a RAM sword sounds like a mighty fine idea.

If they are 2gb sticks of DDr2 then they still have some value. IF they are DDR and less 1gb then destroy it as you please. Try selling 1and 2 gb sticks.
