Is there a hobbyist discount? Something like $30.00 off the cover price
with FREE shipping!!!
If not, I might just rather wait until they are on eBay.
Or better yet, maybe just wait until I can COPY one, you know, for FREE!!!
Note: The above is purely satire. It looks like a pretty nice book, but I
wonder
if your sources of information were truly comprehensive?

Michael Nadeau has written a most excellent guide for
collecting computers
call (of all things), _Collectible Microcomputers_. It's not available in
stores yet but through an arrangement with Michael and the publisher you
can order it through the VCF website.

The price is $29.95 plus $5 for priority mail shipping. If you want a
cheaper shipping option then just e-mail me.
I'm taking payments through PayPal (including credit cards) or personal
check or money order if you prefer (e-mail me for the latter options).
We had hoped to introduce it at VCF 5.0 but the USPS took longer than
expected to deliver the package.
There are a ton of pictures in this book! There are a lot of machines
that I've never heard of, which is cool, because I learned something new,
and sucks, because now I have to go out and find them ;)
Support your fellow list members and buy a copy of this book!
