 Of course, you will have to get over the fact that the RAM you just made into a keychain was on the magnitude of 50 or 80$ per MB back then and now worth next to fractions of a penny.  

This particular one is a single 256kbb SIMM from a 386 before it went the computer went to the eWaste facility.
