An Apple 1 motherboard, a 79-year-old TV and the only surviving processor of the last supercomputer designed by Seymour Cray are being auctioned in New York.
The 1936 Baird television set may not work and delivers a huge electrical charge of 5000 volts.
But it could still fetch between $20,000 (£13,000) and $30,000, according to auctioneer Bonhams.
The Apple 1 has a starting price of $300,000.
Do you have any vintage pieces you'd like to sell in the auction? Are there any items you'd like to add to your collection?

Right, and now that I think of it, there are a few others worth mentioning:
* Macintoshgarden - focuses on early Mac Software
* Asimov archives - focuses on everything for the Apple II.
* HP Computer Museum - As the name implies, focuses on early HP machines, with software and manuals for machines like the HP150.
And there are many other smaller sites that focus on specific systems.

If I could only find the full version of LHX Attack Chopper! There was a hack to get the full version out of the demo, but I forgot how long ago.
