Remember that there are folks out there with millions or more (often made in a
computer-related field), for whom $20,000 is the same as $20.00 for most of us...

I don't think a flipper would have paid that much.
Complete machines have sold for just over 15K within recent memory.
A deep pockets collector must have a machine with all the right
serial numbers that was just missing drives.
sigh.. getting like the high-end car collecting market, where people
pay $1K for an NOS Ford part for their Cobra you could get at
a dealer for $10 in the 60's.

That simply defies logic. I *really* don't get this collecting business.
