Me and my geek crew from college would scavenge old RAM out of scrapped machines all the time. Except, we hunted down the kind from the 486 era that had the little hole punched in one end. Those made excellent keychains.... I never lost my keys when I had a stick of RAM attached.
I used to have a huge box of old parts at my parents' house just in case I found a use for them. Sadly they got scrapped during a time when they were trying to compact my old crap into my old room. Haha. I'm sad their gone since there's tons of geeky arts & crafts I could do with them. :(
Though, I do need to find a new stick of RAM for a keychain so I can stop losing my keys in the bottom of my backpack.
