And you can have yourself a whole mess of "museum pieces" for just the price of shipping. :)

Most were pulled (working) from machines that were upgraded to ethernet at my place of employment. Several are brand new. A mix of Dell and IBM. There are at least 15 of them, possibly more- I can provide an exact count if interested. I just don't have a use for them and it's not worth my time even trying to ebay.
They should fit into a USPS priority mail fixed rate box. If you could use these, pay postage ($8.10), and they are yours.

This makes me laugh! My company (a company of about 10,000 in one metropolitan area) just finally changed over from Token Ring only about 4 years ago. Every now and then I'll still find one of the old cards around. Just saw one about 2 weeks ago in fact.
On a side note, I've got a couple Token Ring MAU's if anybody wants them for their museum!
