I've got 12 of them, no idea what denomination, though fro some reason
2M springs to mind.

They're slightly longer than simms, though not quite the size of dimms.
9 chips on each side with another, smaller, chip turned the other way
seperating 5 on one side and 4 on the other, like so:

Half of them have d|i|g|t|a|l printed on them, and say "side 1" on one
side and "side 2" on the other, with the number 5019464 02 above the
chip that's turned the other way, and "LPWR BE3-1" on one edge. That's
all on side 1. Side 2 has other numbers printed too. Lots of them. These
are tan colored. 

The other half have the same layout, but are green and don't say
d|g|i|t|a|l, but "DATARAM" and "front " and "back" instead of "side1"
and "side2". The most obvious numbers on them are 40964 C and 63101 C.

Yes, I'm interested in a mac. Anything upgradeable to a G3. Pickup is
possible, though if you're on your way to Dave M's house I'd rather meet
you there.
