If we have 165 watchers interesting in this thinkpad (which by the way one was sold with 15bid for $232 https://www.ebay.com/itm/144927584635) then maybe that 818,888 (notice the flowers too in the listing) than I assume at least one is in this group. Seems to me the listing is a sarcastic or insulting way to recognize vintage tech Regards, Tarek Hoteit >> On Feb 14, 2023, at 10:45 PM, Steve Lewis via cctalk &lt;cctalk(a)classiccmp.org&gt; wrote: >> > Wait, are Web Rings going to come back into fashion? :D > > Speaking of shady vintage websites, what the heck is up with this guy > trying to sell a late model IBM laptop for more than an Apple-1 ?
