This guy is looking to sell his TRS-80 Model 1 for a minimum bid of $300! :-/
Of course, the std. "RARE!" and other schmutz is listed thruout the ad...
'Tis a damn shame...
Just thought you'd like to see,

It does bring one interesting question to mind. How many of the computers
in the Smithsonian are actually operational? Mind you I don't remember
seeing a TRS-80 in the Smithsonian, but I've not been there since late '93.
I got the impression then that a lot of them probably wouldn't work. Still
back then the computer section was one of my favorite exhibits.
