One of these days I'll find that Apple 1
board in the scrap boards bin :)
Isn't there a list member who worked for HP or some other (non-Apple)
Bay-area employer that passed up an Apple I, unassembled, in a baggie,
for like $5 at a garage sale many years ago? the "non-Apple" is part
of the story, because, ISTR, they passed it up _because_ it was an
Apple and they worked for "the other guys".
Ring any bells?
