resellers have been buying these up every time they show up; I've
watched this for nearly ten years now. They wouldn't do that if they
didn't know they'd have a buyer.
The real reason HP won't make more is because they've got fucking
clueless incompetent idiots working in management. But we already knew
that.

I would think they would would re-release them at
that price point. I
bet that box could be recreated today for very little. HP could use the
money.
On the face of it, but:
** They know they could only sell about 20, tops. **
The price is probably based on a similar calculation among buyers, of
the total working population that will reach ebay in a reasonable time
frame.
