Nobody bid on it, for some reason, and I ended up with it for $50. I was thrilled to get it, but after a while I had to admit to myself that I just didn't have the time or skill to restore it (it had some minor rust and had been in an attic for 30 years) so I wrote to the Computer History Museum to see if they wanted it. I assumed they wouldn't, I figured they probably had pallets of them, but to my surprise they really wanted it. So, that's where it ended up (and I got a tax deduction, win-win!) If you have the space/time/desire, and the opportunity, definitely do it! -Seth
