Um, I can actually vouch for that one, hehe. Brings new meaning to
Big (heavy-ass) Iron. Interesting collection that the chap has
though. Too bad he is in Europe/Belgium...

Hey folks, last night I recieved the message

It might be on the up-and-up, but it does make my bullshit-sense
tingle. All I know is that shipping a collection that size across
the Atlantic would cost a fortune.
I have no information about the credibility of the
seller. It's certainly
not the "largest computer collection in the world" but it should be an
interesting discussion. ;)
It's definitely not the largest collection in the world. I have
*one machine* that's bigger than that entire collection.

Subject: LARGEST COMPUTER COLLECTION IN THE WORLD (?) FOR SALE
Hi there,
I am selling my complete collection of computers (over 570
different ones). If you are interested in some computer(s) from my
collection, just mail me
at info AT fki DOT be (replace AT by @ and DOT by .) and I'll add you to the
list of possible buyers. I will then mail you back explaining how I intend
to sell the computers. As you can see from my 100% positive
feedback on Ebay (member ChaosDM) this
is not a scam, but a serious sale. I don't want to go through Ebay
directly, because listing 570 different items
separately would take AGES! Anyway...the list of the collection can
be seen here : <http://users.pandora.be/F-242/Computers.htm>
http://users.pandora.be/F-242/Computers.htm
There are a LOT of very and ULTRA rare items in there
For example :
A GOLDEN C64 WITH COMMEMORATIVE PLAQUE! A LOT OF ARABIC MSx's A LOT
OF RUSSIAN COMPUTERS ETC...
Cheers, Dimitri Kokken Belgium
