Subject: Ebay Altair
Good grief, someone puts the word "historic" on a computer and look what
happens to the price someone else is willing to pay. Hmmm, maybe its the
"rush" one gets after taxes are done.

For those that don't choose to browse, the closing price was $10K.
Funny how a lot of people here think the prices are inflated. These prices
are established by *demand* and availability (as with anything else). I sold
my Altair 8800 serial #80 just like this one with my collection :-(
