Well, to be honest 13k for a KS10 plus a TU78 (interesting, forgot they
had 18 bit fiddlers) and an RM05 isn't too bad. $100k for a KA is a bit
nuts, and 200k for a KI is like well ok.... But a KS is actually useful.
As for the rest..... All I can think is it was really nice of the
collector community to essentially donate 3 million worth of
irreplaceable stuff to Paul Allen's estate. I mean I know we should just
give rich people more money, but this whole experience was.....
Sad.
