Me personally? A lot less than $100. But then, I've always been more

That being said, I would pay a premium for certain computers, if I had the
money and there was no other chance of getting one at a "reasonable" cost.

I don't
think we'll see that. I think they'll always have some
significant monetary value, and I do see culturally significant machines
going up in value over time (like Apple 1's).
I agree, but my guess is that the signigicant monetary value will be about
$100 in most cases, ie incomplete non working units with no docs, no
software, and no history. Ask your self this question, at what price would
I buy such a unit? $1000, $500, $250, $100, or a lot less than a $100?
