Hello,

I'm a new user here. Being a huge fan of Mac stuff since the 1980's. I thought I'd share some of my creative side with you guys if I may. I had some spare dead Apple related parts collected over the years and wanted to put them on display in my Man Cave. I always admired the almost artistic beauty of Apple engineering so I mounted a few examples to be used as plaques. Thought some of you guys might enjoy them.

The first one is a collection of CPU's Apple has used over the years. Some are not actual but representations.

Second is a PowerMac G4 AGP "Sawtooth" motherboard and related parts.

Third is a Mac Pro 3,1 Dual Processor motherboard and related parts.

Fourth is what I believe is a StarMax 4000 604e motherboard.

Fifth is a Mac Pro 5,1 Single Processor motherboard

Bonus is an original receipt from March of 1988. I picked up a used MacII in the late 90's and this was in a protective sleeve under the machine. Check out them prices! I know it's old but I blocked out addresses and phone numbers.

I have a few other things but I thought I'd keep it easy this time. Enjoy!
