I hear this a lot, but I think it's just collectors like us whining (yeah,
whining, I'm guilty too) of prices for this stuff going up past the junk
range.
While I do not dispute that there are folks who have had some machine(s) in
their closet/garage/warehouse for some time, find out that it's worth money
now, and pop it onto eBay, I am not aware of anyone who is _buying and
selling_ classic computers for a profit.
