EDIT: After no response, I read through the rules (sorry). I would accept best offer on any of these (something reasonably below the retail prices listed for each). Please post back or PM me.
Thanks!

Cleaning out my closet the other day, I found four sticks of various types of RAM from various computers._One is from an old Compaq that I upgraded for a friend of mine, and the other three are definitely all from Macs at some point —_most likely iBook or PowerBook or iMac. The purpose of my post is three-fold: 1.) can anyone help me positively ID these or point me to a resource online that can help? 2.) can anyone suggest where to try and sell them? 3.) does anyone want to buy any of these?
I could, and might, post them on eBay. But as they're likely not worth a ton, I'd rather just get rid of them quickly without much hassle. I'm less interested in the money and more interested in getting them in the hands of someone who could use them rather than throwing them away. All of these have been kept in good condition in anti-static containers. Anyway, what I (think) I have:
This probably came from my 500 MHZ G3 iBook. As the label says, it appears to be a 256 MB PC100 SO-DIMM. No idea what the speed is. Similar new modules appear to be going for $35 and up according to dealram.com. This one might be worth putting on eBay, but if anyone wants to save me the trouble, let me know.
As you can see, this one is 64 MB and 66 MHZ. I think this one could have come from my old Rev. B, Bondi Blue iMac (233 MHZ G3) which has long since departed my ownership. If that's the case, it's also a PC100 SO-DIMM -- according to dealram.com, new ones are starting at $8 but quickly rise into the $20s.
This one is a 128 MB, DDR, PC2100 SO-DIMM that probably came from my roommate's iBook G4 when we upgraded it. Or it might have come from my other roommate's 12" PowerBook (one of the first -- did they use PC2100 or 2700?). These seem to start at around $10 on dealram.com, but go up into the $30s.
This last one is the real mystery, and maybe a lost cause. Same form as the PC100s above, but that's all about I can tell. Despite it saying Compaq on there, I'm pretty sure it came out of a buddy's Gateway -- one of those all-in-one units with the computer grafted to the back of the LCD (much like the iMac G5, but you know, much crappier). I haven't tried to research this one yet.
Anyway, like I said, I'm looking for help in getting these in the hands of folks who need them. I'm willing to sell here or take suggestions on where to do so. And anyone can help more definitively identify any of these would be my new best friend.
Thanks.
