old pc parts

[Ken Stone]

Generally, PC parts are only much good for making PCs. I have plenty of pc
junk here, and rarely do I use any of these parts in the synth. The
exception is that I have build a whole PC into my synth to act as a sequencer.

>I recently stumbled onto lots of old pc parts at a local junk/antique shop.
A couple of the boards (sound board/motherboard etc) said they where from a
1982 Compaq.  A couple where loaded with ics.  I'm a bit of a newbie... I am
only familiar with the functions of a few ics.. Would anyone out there know
if there would be anything usefull for synth applications on these sort of
boards?  I can get them cheap enough and look them up... or list them
online.  I was just hoping to avoid another one of my famous impulse buys
(which have formed there own land of half working junk).  Any help would be
great.
