I want to know more.
It is your thread one at a time though, so you can specify what your are seeing or questioning. If you could weigh your 87 to the closest tenth...
Update on Variety Vista it says that DDR-003 is silver, and checking die stage B. Which are the only pics it has. It looks to be the same die.
