Hi all
I am trying to expand my CPU collection, so if anyone has any old/broken/unused desktop/laptop/Commodore/Amiga/whatnot that could part with its processor (or FPU), please drop me a line. The processor does not need to be functional.
Not only I will reimburse you for the cost of shipping, but also I will be really grateful!

If I still had my Atari Jaguar, I would have given it to you. I'll look around, I might have something else.

I've got a metric shitton of Sega Genesis motherboards sitting around, would one of those be something you would want? I also have a ton of slot 1 Pentium IIs and IIIs around somewhere(minus cases and heatsinks).

whats the story behind you ending up with a whole load of genesis motherboards?

Simple, I used to repair game systems. Sadly, the small company I used to work for went tits up. I got to keep the leftovers.

I think I've got an old DX4 lying around somewhere.

@Microwave Oven: Are the Sega Genesis CPUs on sockets or soldered directly to the board? And what do you mean 'SLOT1 without case and heatsink'? You mean this:(
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pentium_II_front.jpg) without the black case?
@Matthew: Can you please tell me what it says on the DX4?

The CPUs on the Segas are soldered in (I can't remember any video game systems with a socketed CPU, except for maybe the Intellivision). I can remove the old MkI model's CPU easy enough, but the MkII Genesis has a surface-mount chip, and I don't have the tools for that.
The PIIs have the black plastic case as well as the heat spreader removed, they're just bare PCBs with an exposed CPU (for overclocking goodness).

Currently I have 2 pentium 75s, 1 pentium mmx 200 and 1 pentium mmx 233 (I believe I'm reading the numbers correctly). One of the p75s has a few bent pins. Let me know of which you need or all Haplo, hopefully your in North America. :)
I was thinking we should have a buy/trade/sell section for ttlg? Yea? Nay? Just a thought.

How about an old Z-80 out of a TRS-80? That, and some Commadore CPU. If I can dig them up (in a box somewhere) I'll let you know.
