Aha! You have a point! Anyone remember the time when Osborne-1s were
supposedly rare and were priced at around $1,000-$10,000? Ha ha. Nice joke.
Mind you, they're somewhat uncommon in Europe. I've only seen one of them
at a flea market and I didn't buy it. But then again I probably didn't have
enough money (items at flea markets are priced in direct proportion to
bulk/weight, alas) and I wasn't even into collecting then (I was seriously
tempted to start, though!).
