hey! you could put it on a keychain as well! Actually, I'm not sure where or when, but I think this has been done before.

I've carried around a P90 in my backpack for about three years now. and the Mobo for it is on my wall which it has been used to hang my FIRST medals off of

Rob, you only came up with this because everyone was making fun of you for carrying around your Tamagotchi.

u to huh. guess im not the only one. i had 3 :p.

putting a duron 600 on a key ring shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Fine, it was a Nano Puppy. I know you get very defensive about Wuv Muffin...

Read HardOCP... there's a lot about CPU keychains, and other cool stuff on their forums...

A friend of mine (a former 258er), once ran a 550MHz PII without a heatsink/fan for a day, and burned the hell out of it... He cut off the plastic cartrige, and made himself a keychain with it...

Another friend of mine's cat peed on the logicboard of his Sun SparcStation LX, and fried the MiniSparc... this friend went out of his way to clean it off, desolder the chip, and make himself a keychain with the formerly-soiled piece of silicon, plastic, and whatever else they're made of...

I have yet to personally make a keychain out of any of the various processors we have around the house, but I think we have a fried K7 700MHz (Slot A), so I might be trying it out, pretty soon... if I can find it...
