The LES e-waste warehouse in Gowanus is stunning! They have a large prop area section full of old electronics. It’s crazy to see the GUI of these old macintosh computers. First time seeing Susan Kare’s icon designs in all its original glory.
They also had a $5 section full of old goodies. I found this old Asus motherboard for a desktop computer (I think) that I’m planning to study over winter break. I’m thinking I’ll look into each of the components on this board and find out more information on it, such as how it was made. It’ll be good to find the data sheet for each component as well.
