For your enjoyment: old ram chip from very very old portable mac I saw on the street

Found an old 'portable' apple on the street a few weeks ago - not sure which model it was but definitely one of the early ones as it was huge. It had been opened up and gutted by apple fanatics in the neighborhood (?) but one ram chip was left so I pulled it out - a 64K chip almost the size of my largish remote and built like a tank in Singapore!

64k.....we've come a long way in power and capacity.

Here it is:

That is awesome, I would love to know the date of production for that ram. Things are advancing at an exponential rate nowadays.
