Braun Shaver 340s-4 teardown.
Here is the closeup video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31LAe4reBu0
This was bought new from Amazon in December 2016 and given as a gift. It ended up not working. I called Amazon and they painlessly refunded my money and didn't even want the shaver back. Further inspection shows clearly this was a heavily used item.

This yellow case is a military-style ammo box. It was pulled from a shed and had not been opened in probably 30 years. Since it was outdoors, the case had significant rust, but it does not appear any water leaked into the case.

Looking at the CPU of an HP server from the late 1990s. This 440MHz CPU was pulled out of a server running HPUX around 2010. This puts the service life somewhere around 12 years, which is amazing for computer equipment.
It is a PA-RISC (HPPA) architecture which is no longer supported.
