BTW, it isn't just the HP 1000...the same seller
is listing a Nicolet with the
same misleading (or accurate, depending upon your viewpoint) comparison:
Altair/IMSAI-like Nicolett computer

Like I said in my other posts, these are industrial computers that one
might find in labs, machine shops, etc. I guess they might have some
collectability, but they certainly don't have the collector value of a
*real* IMSAI or Altair (unless I'm missing something). Do you get the
feeling that our buddy over at Ebay has his thumbs on the scale, so to
speak?
