In no special order I would like to find a Commodore Amiga CD32, Philips
CD-1350, SOL, Sony Data Discman, Vectrex, Mark-8 and the list goes on.

Subject: Hardest to Find Classic Computers (Was: RE: Way OT: Just say no
to squirrels & Pascal question)
When OT
threads die and then get resurrected under even
wilder topics, its just not worth it.
Ok, we've had threads similar to this one before, but
maybe not quite...
What are the hardest to find Classic Computers? What should not
be counted:
Systems that never went beyond prototype
Systems that they made only one of
Systems that were custom-designed for a single
customer and were only in limited production
Systems that were not "general purpose" computers
Also not intended as the thrust of the topic:
Systems you most of all want
Rather, the systems I'me talking about would have been
commercially produced, were general-purpose systems,
made in quantity of say at least a baker's dozen.
These systems might be generally available, and might
go for a price you can afford, but you just can't *find*
them where you're at.
Around here for me, it would be PDP-8's and Lisa's.
