[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 1041062, member: 369937"] We call them compactor food...As I said above I had some Compaq MB's here but sent them to the recyclers after stripping all the gold off them, over the years I have recovered about 2 OZ of gold and a 1/2 OZ of other rare Earth elements, this takes a lot of MB's and other electronic scrap to make up that much, and you need to know what to look for and how to separate it from the base metals. Copper is another collectable, #2 scrap copper is about $2.00 a pound, (depending on market values) but if you strip it down and melt it into bars it can be called #1 copper and that can range from around $2.25 to $3.25 a pound depending on market.
