Trash haul!!!

A friend of mine was walking his dogs and found a bunch of stuff in a back alley. Unfortunately the day after he found them there was two days of massive snowfall.. He remembered to tell me after it had happened. Well I went there today and found a whole bunch of interesting items:

PowerMac8100/100
PowerMac 4400
PowerMac 6500
PowerMac 6100 (I think, has no top on it)
Mac Classic
StyleWriter 1
StyleWriter 2
Two SE Analog Boards with Power Supplies
Third SE Power Supply
A box of optical drives
Box for NewerTech G3/300 Accelerator (I think it’s installed in the 8100, will check later)
An OLD Epson Parallel Printer!! (RX80)
The piece de resistance: A Boxed RasterOps Display Card. I was thinking, there’s no way the card is in this box. Open it up, it has the Manual, DB15 adapter AND THE CARD IS IN AN ANTISTATIC ZIPLOCK BAG.
Plus, it has 4 simm slots for additional VRAM, and all four of them are populated. There’s a bit of moisture from the snow, but I’m hoping it’s ok.
I’ll have to test it in the 8100 (providing it boots, have to look at it later.). I might be able to test it in my duo dock, but I’d rather try with the 8100. Back in the day I had two 7100/80 and one of them had the G3/300 accelerator card as well.
Can’t wait to take some of these apart and see what works and what doesn’t.

Here’s a photo of the SE analog boards power supplies and CRTs. The iMac in the background already belongs to me.

@nottomhanks ooooh that G3 accelerator for the 8100...would you consider selling that? I have one, but i lack the PDS relocator bracket and flex cable.

Not sure, I need to test it first. I had one with my 7100/80 when I ran my recording studio in the late 90s. It has a couple spots of corrosion on it, and the 8100 logic board needs cleaning and recapping before it can be tested properly. I’ll probably keep it as I know how rare it is. Also, the 8100 says 100 on the front, but the logic board says Flagship 110 Mhz, which is also interesting.
