Only the lead I think, and not too terrible. I have circuitry glued to my
car with wires to make it look like urban decay. I also have a 30pin ram
simm as a keychain. It'd make neat christmas tree ornaments too. I think
if you don't try to eat off it you're alright. I've seen clipboards and
binders made of empty circuit boards also, and clocks made from hard drives.

No, not likely. they are not so rare as that and every museum that cares
has a sample. I suppose if the system was all original, mint condition
with the original install and had something in the styling to recommend it,
like a mac apple, or an apricot system, then MAYBE it would have some value
as a collectors item, but not terribly likely. Unlike stamps, they take up
a LOT of space...
Let it go. If you don't learn to let go you'll wind up one of those old
men who's got one chair free to sit on, a nest in the middle of a covered
bed and only one metre footpaths through his piled nest of a house. No
idea what's under it all and a health hazard besides! Yes, I've witnessed
that, several times.
