I've always wanted a 3000 system to play with after using one (as a user
only) many years and many jobs ago.
Epay prices seem a little high. $current_job had one years ago and sold
it on eBay for $250 (I found the sold listing in a folder ...). I cried
a little. It wasn't a fill the floor model - but it had to have had a
little "oomph" as it supported 30-40 interactive users all day.
I agree with the other posters and the list-boss - if you provide hobbyist
pricing I'd be game. You're not going to get far with commercial or
"high price just because it's rare but not in demand" pricing.
Otherwise, I offer fifty bucks ... :)
