So I stumbled upon some OEM software... NT Workstatoion 4.0 IBM OEM discs and COA's. Obviously it's possible to sell some of this with hardware (per microsoft general oem rules), but wtf should I do with this mess? I don't think its really worth much of anything, but I didn't want it to head to the dump!

close up
in boxes and bags
all of it

And yes I felt this was an off topic thread, I just wanted to discuss the hilarity and logistics of this find :p

throw it away


keep it long enough to become a musuem item


i recommend you throw it away, it is garbage

We were on NT as late as earlier this year. We got by, but, man after using XP, I could never go back.

Still, resale on Ebay is NULL, so, unless you can use it for something yourself, it's only gonna be good for making abstract art out of.

It was also suggested that I make some sort of case mod out of them, but I couldn't come up with any ideas :p

Just how much is the going rate for a screw these days? :p (with NT packing mateiral)

Seriously though I am totally curious what these are worth. I've already had a couple pm's about wanting to buy them. I was guessing a buck or less each?

I was thinking of making some sort of computer case of of them, but the glue alone to hold it all together would be insane.
