What about machines built at prototypes only (PERQ 2T4,
PERQ3A,
Tiger?
Tandy Deluxe Coco, etc). Some of those are very
difficult to
find.
Don't forget the Atari 1400, 1450xld, etc, which exists as
prototypes only.
Absolutely. It never fails to amaze me that some 1980's home
micros
(particularly Sinclar ZX80's, ZX81's, etc and Commodore 64's)
still fetch
quite high prices second-hand, while I am often _given_
minicomputer
equipment.
It's a memory/nostalgia thing. When I was a young boy, I got
access to a bunch of early micros (Ohio Scientific, Exidy Sorcerer, Kim
-1, etc). Now I'm older and want own things from my youth. ;-)
