Hey guys,

Sending in my first shipment to boardsort and was hoping you could help me with classifying a bunch of Mac motherboards. Descriptions are with each picture. Greatly appreciate the help!

Thanks,
Mike

1. Small socket server mobo
2. Small socket server mobo
3. Not too sure but I'd say high peripheral (removal the battery)
4. High peripheral
5. Not too sure. I want to say large socket motherboard but I'm not certain.
6 and 7 At least high peripheral, maybe low telecom?
8. Small socket color motherboard, remove the battery

Thank you sir!

I had done some research and it looked like most of the iMac (and most other Apple) logic boards were considered Laptop Motherboards, is that not the case anymore?

Searching up old threads, I'm not too sure as motherboard grading changed about a year ago. And I forgot about number 9.

8 looks like probably still small socket colored motherboard.
9 could maybe make it to laptop motherboard grade? Or maybe at least high peripheral or even large socket motherboard? I'd email Chris to make sure.
