Found a Bucket Full of Retro Computer Parts

Hi! One of my university professors left behind a ton of junk after retiring. It turns out there was a bucket full. There were hard drives, old floppy disks, about four motherboards, CDs with software licenses (Office 98 and FrontPage 98), and so on. The motherboards are two 486 DX2s, one 386, and one Pentium. All but the Pentium are damaged because the battery leaked. They seem beyond repair. I'm going to remove the integrated circuits. The hard drives look interesting. There are some from different eras. One is huge. Just yesterday, one of the hard drives (a Western Digital Caviar) came up on my eBay feed. There's also a large collection of different types of RAM. I'm going to try to see what's salvageable or collectible and send the rest to the junkyard. What do you think of this find?
