Yes....Hmm...Very mysterious looking piece of metal. I hope you find a use for it somehow, possibly a paper weight or something.

Good luck on the project!

It's just a paperweight, probably worth like...5 dollars...

I'll give you 10 for it and I'll split shipping with you

It's amazing that UPS is just dumping scrap metal at people's houses nowadays... the nerve! Tell you what, if you pay me $50, I will dispose of it for you in an environmentally safe manner- I'll recycle it.

OMG ... I heard those hurt your gas mileage. I run a disposal company ... call me up ASAP and I will dispose of it and clean your house as a free and complementary service

Oh BTW, Dell ownes Alienware and just changes the case of their top-end PC/laptops, paints them green, and gives them ears. It is a TERRIBLE investment unless you just like their warrenty and pretty green ear-ed hardware.

About my pc LOL. I bought it 4 years ago, The only thing alienware is the case, keyboard and mouse. The inside of my PC isn't alienware anymore just custom ****.

HERE are some more pics. The charge pipe had silver thermo tape wraped around it, when I took off the tape, double sided tape remained and I had to peel it with my hand. The 1st picture shows you about 4 hours of picking away I only got 1/2 of the pipe cleaned. The last 2 show you another days worth of picking/polishing can do.
