“Hand Picked Golden Dragon” RAM wrapped in gold silk brocade! Cleaning the garage, I found these gorgeous packages perfectly preserved in an airtight box. What the hell are they? One package still holds a 512 MB memory chip nestled in a bed of rich, red, synthetic suede, with a pretty pink ribbon for conveniently extracting the delicate thing. The other package is empty.
We can’t think of what they were for. An old Epson wide-format ink jet? A Panasonic video recorder? A camera? The packages are too nice to throw out. I guess that’s why the garage needs excavation.
It’s just plain old PC memory – SO-DIMMs were used on laptops or PCs with very small “footprints”. The fact that the contents of the container are so mundane makes the container itself even more extraordinary!
Give them to a Windows user for Xmas. ;)
Indeed, these are still very useful, notebooks etc.
