Here's my guess:

1) Green Fiber with Metal or Apple CPU
2) Low Grade Peripheral
3) High Grade Peripheral; if it came out of a laptop, it would probably go as a Laptop Motherboard
4) Low Grade Peripheral
5) High Grade Peripheral
6) High Grade Peripheral

I would still go with High Grade Peripheral.

I would think it would still be Low Grade Peripheral. But wait for Lostinlodos to reply.

Out of curiousity, If i found it within reason to remove the plastic and metal on boards like this, would this be considered high Peripheral?

Sort of.
I’ve dealt with scraping a few similar ultra condensed boards.
This is a glitch in the matrix.
The more compact a board is the more valuable the weight.
Here the board still kept the full port complex. Which is also uncommon in reduction.

The plastic port cover comes in two designs. The first being worth trying to remove. A piece attached to the board via 4 plastic legs about half the height of the ports. A second piece is then clamshell hitch snapped into place, forming the top half. Often glued in. Occasionally also or otherwise heat melted shut. Look for a seam half way up that goes 3/4 or all the way around. A pair of large slip jaws and some finesse and these snap open. Then some wiggling on the under side of the ports with a screw driver or heavy gage knife will pry the bottom half up enough to cut the legs and slide the plastic off.

The other method is is a single formed case shell moulded over and into the ports. The ports are installed with steel casing. The plastic is then formed over the ports. Here you need to remove the entire port complex. That generally reduces the board weight so much it’s not worth the effort.

In both cases the board would upgrade to high peripheral with the network ports removed or freed.

Again this is a fluke board. The vast majority of networking boards are high peripheral or higher.
