Ha! Just the other day I decided I should disassemble the PPros from
two old quad PPro Proliant 14U servers. There seemed to be no value to
them as parts or intact. Somewhere on the net claimed they have $30-40
in gold in each PPro. When I checked eBay, it seemed to be true.
Someone was even selling a new-old-stock CASE of PPros, and the high price
must've reflected the gold value.
