I'd think your both right. Anything pre-mid-70s is gonna be high pm value. But that danger area on generic quotes comes from 72-89 where so much junk was put out.
A datacet from 1977 gave me over 2 ounces CLEAN gold (talking picking crap off the board mind you; not refining ) but a telegames (sears vcs Atari) will be crap low board And worth less than $5 total completely stripped to everything sellable. Stuff from DEC and IBM will be high end but not Packard?
And there's more gold and platinum in an 1987 SG Marc 2 arcade unit than modern mainframe systems.
As stated above best to post pics and wait for a mod.



What is a Datacet? googled it and didnt get anything. I have alot of military shit from the 70's and 80's. wonderin if i might have one.

Datacet=Data cassette.
Digital Cassette storage:

I believe it was a DEC, and this is the closest I could find, may or may not be what I had. Big heavy unit. Full of PM. Front loading exchangeable cartridges.
